What plants and trees strive in Arizona's dry desert like land?

I just moved and was wondering what kind of plants strive here, are geraniums ok?
What plants and trees strive in Arizona's dry desert like land?
strive? As in "strive to live"? Or do you mean "thrive"?



One of the more useful books for gardening in the western US is the Sunset Magazine "bible", Sunset Western Garden Book. It divides states into microclimatic zones so you can better decide what's likely to grow well for you. Used copies should be easy to find and cheap on sites like abe.com, or you can pick up a new copy for not much at just about any bookstore.



If you're in high plateu country, the plants you can grow will be quite different than if you're in, say, Phoenix.
