While
driving through the Bear Lake Valley, I've noticed some
abandoned, pioneer-era
homes that still have thriving plants growing around it. It is impressive to me
that a lilac planted so long ago, and so long abandoned can still be alive, let
alone look good! We do live in a valley that gets pretty small amounts of rain
fall. How does the lilac survive? Other plants that do similarly well in these
abandoned landscapes are the peony and coppertina rose (that pretty yellow rose
that takes over everything in its path).

These
plants are certainly cold and drought hardy! Just remember that in order for
your lilacs, peony, and coppertina rose to survive like that you'll have to
water them until their roots become well established. After that you can back
off the water gradually. I recommend watering them for 3-5 growing seasons. We
have three varieties of lilac, peonies, and the coppertina rose. See how these
Bear Lake Valley hardy plants can enhance your landscape.
