cooler climates and some partial shade in the hottest areas. Plants may need
winter protection in Zone 6.
Soil: The soil should be well-draining, but rich. Passion flowers grow and
bloom best when the soil is kept moist. They don’t handle drought well.
Soil pH can be in the neutral range, anywhere from about 6.1 to 7.5.

apparently not all plants under stress produce bitter cucumber but those
produce bitter fruits were definitely stressed, usually by hot temperature
or plus heat or drought, or you name it.
it is probably their natural response to the stress.

IS THE TRICK:
Blueberries come from cool, moist, forest clearings in North America. The
trick to growing them in hot, dry Southern California is to choose the low-
chill types.
Blueberries need an acid soil (pH of 4.5-5.5). Plant bare-root or potted
shrubs in large pots filled with azalea mix and peat moss. Place in light
shade to full sun.
Use acid-inducing plant food, such as cottonseed.

Poa Annua, or Annual Bluegrass
Poa annua is as common a lawn weed as they come. It looks a little like
Kentucky bluegrass, except it has a lighter shade of green, shallower roots,
and less drought resistance. It dies off when the weather gets hot, leaving
big empty patches in your lawn. Keep it out by spreading a crabgrass
preventer in late summer, before seeds can sprout in the fall. |

如果你想申请这个项目，做之前最好有个主意，自己喜欢什么样的花园，什么样的植物
。 另外也有个BUDGET， 想在里面投多少钱。 愿意花钱多，省心还漂亮。 想省钱，就

南加抗旱花园有几种选择， 可以做成NATIVE GARDEN，招蜂鸟的， 可以是HERB， 也可
