Since 1963 the Desert Foothills Scenic Drive has been showcasing Sonoran plants, preserving scenic setbacks and providing an easy way for residents and visitors to learn the names of the unique plants that make their home here.  The unique and fragile Sonoran environment of the desert foothills is one of the main reasons many of us chose to live here. You can support Scenic Drive projects by enrolling as a Plant Parent, even by adopting one of the fifty plant exhibits on the Scenic Drive [Read More].  A Jojoba plant exhibit near the Boulders Resort is pictured to the right.
