APACHE PLUME 1gal

Apache Plume is a true testament to the beauty and resilience of our Arizona native plants, my friend! Picture this: an airy, vase-shaped shrub, typically growing to about 4 to 6 feet tall and wide, adorned with delicate, feathery, silver-pink seed heads that appear after the white, rose-like flowers bloom in late spring and summer. These plumes give the plant its unique and captivating appeal, lasting well into the fall and winter.

This hardy shrub thrives in full sun right here in Prescott and is exceptionally drought-tolerant once established, making it a perfect fit for our drier climate. It's also quite adaptable to our native soils. And here's some good news for those concerned about wildlife nibbling on their plants: Apache Plume is generally considered deer and rabbit resistant.

To give your Apache Plume the best start in your Prescott garden, incorporate some Watters Premium Mulch when planting. This will help with initial moisture retention as it gets established. Once it's settled in, it's quite self-sufficient and prefers not to be overwatered. You likely won't need to fertilize it either; it's well-adapted to our native conditions. This low-maintenance beauty will add unique texture and year-round interest to your landscape, reminding us of the subtle beauty of our high desert.
