Landscaping in the Big Country with Adam Andrews 6/27/26: Beat the Heat – Summer Watering Tips, Wisteria & the Madagascar Palm
<p>With West Texas settling into triple-digit temperatures, Adam and Amber focus on helping homeowners keep landscapes healthy through the hottest part of the summer. They discuss the importance of inspecting sprinkler systems, checking drip irrigation for hidden leaks caused by wildlife, and why watering early in the morning gives plants the best chance to thrive while conserving water. They also explain how products like Hydretain can help reduce irrigation needs during extended hot weather.</p><p>This week's featured plants include two unique favorites. First is the beautiful American (Texas) Wisteria, a fragrant flowering vine that can transform pergolas, fences, and arbors with spectacular blooms while attracting butterflies and standing up well to West Texas conditions. The second is the fascinating Madagascar Palm—despite its name, it's actually a succulent rather than a true palm. Adam and Amber explain its unusual growth habit, seasonal care, watering requirements, and why it's one of their favorite conversation-piece plants.</p><p>The episode also highlights Willow Creek Gardens' Workshop Warehouse, where visitors can build terrariums, fairy gardens, succulent arrangements, Zen gardens, and other creative plant projects in a comfortable, air-conditioned environment. Whether you're looking to beat the summer heat, add unique plants to your collection, or simply enjoy a hands-on gardening experience, this episode is packed with practical advice and inspiration for gardeners of every skill level.</p>
