I'm a beginning gardener! I've had tons of success with large container gardening in my BARREN Vegas backyard. I bought all my edibles as seedlings at a local nursery... tomatoes, peppers, squash, green beans and eggplants. If I plant by Feb and harvest late May-June, everything's fine. BUT, I want to continue growing stuff throughout the summer and notice the nurseries never sell seedlings/seeds for edibles that are tolerant of southwest conditions. So, I came across a catalog provided by a non-profit group called Native Seed Search that sells seeds for a variety of edibles that are more heat/drought tolerant than your average plants. Anyone have luck growing in the southwest June-Sept?? With Native Seed company?
