Union City’s Mediterranean climate is perfect for drought-tolerant native plants that look great year-round while using minimal water. Popular choices include California native grasses, lavender, rosemary, and olive trees.

We choose species that complement Union City’s natural landscape while meeting water restriction requirements. Native plants also support local wildlife and require less fertilizer and pest control.
