I'm afraid "dryland" in that area is a little out of my league

I would check with extension people in your area for advice.

what i meant by dry land is the fact that we dont get the winters like you guys do we get the rain but a majority of the year its really hot so i didnt know if different plants would work better than others but no worries ill do some asking around here

Alfalfa is a good legume that can stand some dry weather much better then clover.

Rye and wheat are also "dryland" crops that might work well.
