Why Choose the Canyon Sunset Collection?

This collection brings the wild beauty of arid hillsides straight to your door. By planting these resilient natives, you create a sustainable, low-maintenance sanctuary that lights up your landscape with color and life. The unique combination of silver foliage and jewel-tone blooms ensures your garden offers "radiance" year-round, while the extended bloom time supports a wide variety of local pollinators.

Planting Tips:

1. Location: Plant in full sun with well-drained soil; ideal for sandy or rocky areas.
2. Watering: Water regularly during the first growing season to establish roots. Reduce watering frequency once established.
3. Maintenance: Minimal care required. There's no need to deadhead the flowers, as allowing them to go to seed provides a valuable food source for birds. Leaving the stems standing in the fall offers overwintering sites for beneficial insects. If desired, cut back the stems in late spring after pollinators have emerged.
