For Fern and Tracy: I live in Phoenix and one of the best resources you can have is a book called Desert Gardening by George Brookbank. If your library doesn’t have it, you can find it reasonably priced on Amazon. Kelly

Thank you so much for the link. It has popped up a few times in searches, so I guess that is the best place to go for desert gardening. Wish me luck.

Tracy -- I'm sorry, but I've never lived in a desert climate like Las Vegas. I have no experience or knowledge about growing in your locale. I did find this website from the University of Arizona extension which may be helpful to you.

I’m a total gardening novice with high hopes but not high expectations for a fall container garden – vegetables & flowers. I’m thinking I should just pick a few simple starter vegetables but don’t really know what grows best (read: easiest) this time of year in Las Vegas. I’m trying not to be overly ambitious, but I do have a 28′ patio that’s just dying for some beautiful greenery. I’d appreciate absolutely any suggestions you can offer.

Thanks,
Tracy Nelson

My mom always planted marigold flowers with tomatoes. I planted one this year with my two tomato plants and no bugs at all until my marigold plant died.
