What seeds can I plant in El Paso, TX during this time of year. And either flowers or vegetables. please help.

You can grow just about anything in TX as long as you water during the Hot summer. You may need to add organic material if you have caliche or clay soils. Lowez, HomeyD, Wallyworld sell bags of cow poo (sterile, composted.)



Wild flowers, zinnias, dianthus, datura (jimson weed grows wild there), bluebonnets, paintbrush, larkspur, peony, marigold, camelia, azalea, mimosa, gardenia, jasmine, honeysuckle, rose, lillies, and a gazillion more....anything you find beautiful.



Grow vegies you enjoy eating.



Corn should be planted in at least 4 rows to ensure pollination.



have fun in the dirt.

Beans, just keep them moist to sprout. Corn but corn needs chemicals, unless its just for looks. Tomatos for sure, but by a plant already started. Carrots, beets, radishes, all good. Sunflowers, zinnias, statice, just take care of them. Marigolds too.
