Cordia parvifolia
Little-Leaf Cordia
Description
Medium sized grows to 6' x 6'. Branches are covered with gray-green small leaves which are oval & toothed. Give adequate room so pruning will not destroy its character. Warm humid conditions trigger clusters of small white blooms. Effective for screening or informal hedge. Will accept reflected sun. Native to Chihuahuan and Sonoran deserts.

Water Saving Tip:
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.
