Hope this can be updated with plants that naturally grow in the area, so-called "native" plants: easier to grow once established, virtually never need watering, can often adapt to changing climate, and are a needed resource for birds.https://realgardensgrownatives.com/?p=3904

Good comments on physical measures to take on one's property, though they would seem minimal to people living in rural, wildfire-risky rural areas. (Missing, significantly, are building-hardening measures such as metal roofs and non-flammable siding and trim, measures that should be code in places at risk from wildfires, especially windblown wildfires.) Unfortunately, the "acceptable" plants listed include invasive, ecologically damaging, nonnative species. Also, the urban, roadside-clearing standards applied to roads in parks and other undeveloped places are a recipe for biological degradation of those places and spread of invasive species.
