Why It Matters in the Upstate
Choosing Plants for Upstate SC Climate
Greenville experiences hot, humid summers and occasional winter freezes. Selecting plants that tolerate both drought and clay soil—such as Crape Myrtles, Hydrangeas, Loropetalum, Boxwoods, and Black-Eyed Susans—ensures your garden bed flourishes year after year with minimal plant loss.
Mulch vs. Decorative River Rock
Hardwood mulch enriches soil as it decomposes and regulates soil temperature, making it ideal for annuals and delicate perennials. River rock or slate gravel provides a sleek, low-maintenance finish that resists washouts on sloped beds and around downspouts.
