Plants in Bend

Plant evidence Scoped by documented range and hardiness — independent of any construction code.

High desert gardening is subtraction: cold nights, dry summers, and USDA half-zones 6a and 6b cut Bend's palette down to 521 documented plant records in 294 plant groups.

Every group card divides its records by what the cited evidence found — how to read the split explains the bar — and the sun, water, and form facets can narrow the list to what your yard actually offers.

Plant groups documented in Bend

Each bar splits one genus's cited records — listed fire-resistant, keep away, in conflict, not yet classified — and never rates the genus. The default is a record-share filter, not a rating: choose “All record splits” to see every documented group. 44 of these groups have no sourced common name, so the card shows the Latin genus.
