Newbie from the Inland Empire

I'm new to this site as well as gardening in the IE. Hubby and I moved to Menifee from San Diego last summer and we are working on our landscaping, etc. We bought a foreclosure, so there was no back yard at all, and luckily the grass in the front came back, and we have some really pretty daylilies and fortnight lilies in the front yard. The trees were all dead, so they've all been pitched.

We have planted 12 large queen palms on our property, and also have a pygmy date palm, some purple cornflowers, bogenviella, a few cactus, a few banana's, etc. We love a wide variety of things, especially flowers and palms, and I'm wondering if you have any advice on what grows well here. We are in Menifee, zip 92584. We get a lot of wind, full sun (no totally shady spots yet), and last winter we had frost a few times.

I'm so excited to have found this site!

Menifee is where Singing Wolf lives---she's a very active DG'er, and has lived there for a long time. She should be able to help you get familiar with what does well there.
Welcome!!

Fantastic! Thank you so much!

Welcome! You'll love it here. I agree, SingingWolf will be able to give you some great advice, I'm sure she'll be along shortly!

Welcome to DG and the California Forum, Erin! Yep, SW is your girl - she'll steer you right.

Welcome Erin, have fun!

Singing Wolf is out of town right now, but she's definitely the one to talk to.

Thanks everyone! I've been chatting online a bit with SingingWolf - she's been such a fantastic help!
