What desert plants seem to thrive for you with little or no irrigation, even in a hot season like this one?

    In my Tucson garden, Palo Blanco (Mariosousa willardiana) trees that are established seem to thrive on natural precipitation alone, also creating light shade that suits many underplantings just fine.
