Choosing the right plants for your landscape or garden is essential, especially in a country like Saudi Arabia with its harsh desert climate. Hot summers, minimal rainfall, and sandy or rocky soils can make plant selection a challenge — but not impossible.
In this blog, we’ll guide you through the best plant types and tips to help your garden thrive in the Saudi climate.
Understand the Local Climate
Saudi Arabia is known for:
