Ajouté : 2026-06-01

Five fruit trees are particularly well-suited for hot, dry climates: Mulberry (drought-hardy once established with abundant production in low rainfall), Persimmon (thrives in heat with minimal water), Pomegranate (native to arid regions, produces on as little as 12 inches of annual rainfall), Fig (confirmed by UC Master Gardeners as one of the most drought-tolerant fruit trees), and Olive (survives on rainfall alone in Mediterranean climates and can live for centuries). All these trees require regular watering during the first 1-2 years of establishment before their root systems develop sufficient drought tolerance.
