Four questions

What should I plant?

The same questions we'd ask you at the counter — how much sun the spot gets, how much room there is, how much watering you're up for, and what you want the plant to do.

Question 1 of 4

How much sun does the spot get?

Count the hours of direct summer sun, not brightness.

How big can it get?

Mature height, not the size it is in the pot. Look up for wires and out to fences.

How much watering are you up for?

Be honest — everything here still needs regular water through its first summer.

What do you want it to do?

The job matters more than the look — pick the main one.
