Mrs. Jansen recently moved to Arizona. She wants to fill her new backyard with flowering plants. Although she is an experienced gardener, she isn't very well-versed in what plants will do well in the Arizona climate. Also, there is a big tree in her backyard making for shady conditions and she isn't sure what plants will thrive without much direct sunlight. Her favorite gardening catalog offers several backyard seed packages. Which one should Mrs. Jansen choose?
The Rainbow Collection is ideal for North-east gardens. It includes a variety of colorful perennials that thrive in cool, moist conditions.
The Greenhouse Collection will blossom year after year if planted in brightly lit locations and watered regularly.
The Treehouse Collection will provide lush green plants with delicate colorful flowers that thrive in shady and partially shady locations.
The Oasis Collection includes a variety of perennials that thrive in dry climates and bright sunlight.
Answer: Option

The Treehouse Collection is the only package that can thrive in shady locations. Choice a requires a Northeastern climate. Choices b and d require bright sunlight.

@Pragadeesh.

D is not a right choice. Although she is an experienced gardener, she isn't very well-versed in what plants will do well in the Arizona climate. Oasis also thrive in bright sunlight. But, she wants to grow plants that can thrive without much direct sunlight. She also wants to fill her new backyard with flowering plants.

Option C fulfill all these requirements. Tree house Collection will provide lush green plants with delicate colorful flowers (fulfilled). Also, can thrive in shady and partially shady locations. (also fulfilled).

So, option C should be correct.

D is the right choice and only oasis plants can grow.

Since Mrs. Jansen lives in Arizona a desert, the most appropriate choice will be D as the Oasis Collection variety of perennials thrive in Dry climate and bright sunlight. Hence the best answer should be given to D rather C.
