Did we just blow your mind? If so, all we gotta say is, “le sigh.”

This weekend, Desert Botanical Garden is giving us a seasonal reminder with its annual Fall Plant Sale. It’s true that we don’t score sexy seasonal hints like the rest of the Northern Hemisphere – like sweater weather and magically morphing leaves – but DBG does usher in autumn (remember, autumn is synonymous with fall) by offering hundreds of arid-adapting plants available for purchase. We promise that succulents will be the only suck-oriented word being thrown around on the garden grounds during this shindig that also features answer-ready horticulturalists and a used book sale.
