Summer is not the traditional time for planting, but you can add perennials to your garden this month, provided you pick wisely. That is where drought-tolerant perennials come to the fore; they can be planted during warmer months, but still need care and attention to establish.
Most perennials favor being planted in the spring or fall, when temperatures are cooler and there is ample natural rainfall. Then there are those perennials that are more tolerant of heat and drought, and these are the plants we are focusing on here.
