What vegetables would grow well in the hot middle east desert climate / soil?
We have a large area around our home in Abu Dhabi. We have a gardener who has planted lots of impatiens, some green ground cover plants (looks like grass but not), laid down quite a bit of grass sod and some other purple leaf plants (ornamental) at the base of the sapodilla (sapota) trees / date palms. He is on vacation now. I want to grow vegetables in the large patch behind the house – What is suitable? Really hot humid weather
You’d do better growing vegetables in less warm parts of the year. Okra is from the Mediterranean and tolerates heat well, just not 120. It’s grown in Egypt. Also eggplant, tomatoes, peppers. Since you don’t have a frost to worry about, you can grow vegetables almost year round……you have to worry about heat, not cold.
The trick will be creating a suitable soil. Lots of organic matter and soil nutriets are critical.
