Feel Great Botanics

Build rich soil with compost and mulch

Layer organic mulch to conserve moisture, moderate soil temperature, and suppress weeds. Rotate crops to prevent nutrient depletion.

• Use shredded leaves and straw for mulch
• Mix compost into top 6 inches

Install shallow irrigation and rainwater capture

Drip lines and mulch reduce evaporation. Collect rainwater in sealed containers for steady irrigation.

• Water early morning to minimize evaporation
• Target roots with emitter spacing

Choose drought-tolerant, organic varieties

Opt for Mediterranean herbs and ornamentals that thrive in warm, dry summers and mild winters.

• Rosemary, thyme, oregano
• Lavender, Santolina, Artemisia
