Albuquerque sits at a mile high: intense UV, cool nights, and single-digit humidity most of the summer, which is why purple-expressing cuts color up here like almost nowhere else. The July monsoon is short but violent, hail included, and Santa Fe gardens should plan wind protection. Frost clears in late April and returns in late October at the lower elevations, a full six-month season with dry finishing weather most years.
The nurseries quoted on this board ship to New Mexico as tracked nursery stock; orders land in Albuquerque, Santa Fe, Las Cruces and everywhere between. Orders ship from the nursery in up to 2 weeks, tracked door to door. Every cut listed here ships as a fully rooted clone, 8-12" tall. Time your order so arrival lands after your last frost if the plant is headed outside.
