Independent Journalism in Phoenix Needs You
We need to raise $15,000 by August 9 to support the reporting our community depends on. Reader support keeps us independent and is playing a larger role in funding local journalism and shaping what comes next. If you believe independent local journalism matters, make a contribution today.
It’s soooo tempting to buy one of those cheerful-looking succulents you see in the Garden department at Target. Don’t succumb! They’re mass-produced and babied in nurseries, and they’ll almost certainly croak after a week of exposure to the summer heat. While a lot of places pretend to know what they’re doing relative to hocking cactus, we’ve only found one — Desert Botanical Garden — that offers arid-climate plants with such a long and healthy life expectancy. See what we mean while you’re dodging little red wagons — you’ll see what we mean — at this fecund annual sale.
