Sonoran Palo Verde, 'AZT' |
This semievergreen tree grows at a moderate to fast rate to 30' x 30'. It has beautiful dark-blue green leaves and an attractive multi-trunked shape. Yellow, funnel-shaped petals appear in spring and are followed by a few light tan pods. Accepts full sun. Can be weaned off of supplemental irrigation once it reaches desired size. Lush appearance makes it a highly adaptable tree for patios, walkways and for shade. Small thorns do not seem to be a problem. - Arid Zone Trees

As the weather gets hotter avoid the temptation to increase run times.
Instead, schedule more start times with one to two hours in between to allow the water from the previous session to soak in before watering again.
