The Arizona Yard Planner

A printable 12-page planner for desert yards. $7, instant download.

Pages from The Arizona Yard Planner: cover, month-by-month calendar and watering rules

Our free guides tell you what to do. The planner puts it on paper you can keep by the controller: a calendar for the year, the watering rules, logs to fill in, and checklists for hiring someone. Made for Arizona yards, especially the low desert.

What's inside

  • 12 desert plant picks, lawn grass by elevation, and a plant inventory worksheet
