Drought Tolerant Annuals

Drought tolerant annuals let you fill your garden with season-long color without worrying about every missed watering. These plants thrive in hot, dry conditions. So those sunny, exposed spots in your yard are exactly where they shine. Because annuals give you a fresh start each season, you can try new water-wise varieties every year. That means your low-water garden keeps evolving.

At Garden Crossings, our drought tolerant annuals come from a carefully evaluated lineup chosen for vibrant performance and water-wise reliability. You'll find trailing varieties for containers, upright bloomers for garden beds, and compact options for borders. Plant them in your sunniest, driest spots and they'll reward you with nonstop color from spring through frost.
