Drought tolerant plants, trees & shrubs list for Southern Oregon including Ashland, Medford, Jacksonville, Central Point & Grants Pass.
There may be spiny leaves present, or no leaves at all. Many drought-resistant plants also feature longer-than-normal roots that help them in accessing water that has been stored underground. Some species, particularly those of trees, shrubs, and perennials, will adjust their root depths to bi...
Using several adjacent Great Basin desert and Sierran montane trees and shrubs, we tested the prediction that water-use efficiency (WUE) is lower in more drought-tolerant species. We also measured maximum net photosynthetic rates and photosynthetic nitrogen-use efficiency (PNUE) to determine if the...

Bougainvillea is a drought-tolerant champion and easily one of the toughest shrubs. Why? It can last 3-4 weeks after a deep watering without needing it again. 8. Moss Rose Botanical Name:Portulaca grandiflora USDA Zones:3-11 Moss Roses need watering just a couple of times in spring and fa...
Here, we quantify the relationships between functional traits retrieved from global databases and post-drought growth resilience indices obtained from field studies in 19 conifer trees and shrubs growing in conterminous Spain. Conifers are selected because: (i) they are major components of boreal, tem...
