[Perennials]USDA Zones & the desert


    We're moving to Orange County, CA, which appears to be USDA zone 10.
I have a book that seems to indicate that virtually no perennials are
suited for this climate! Many of the plants listed are for a range of
zones, but the upper range is usually 8 or 9. Does that mean the plants
*must* experience freezing to grow well?
    The lawns in this area have stiff, scratchy grass. Is that the only
choice for the desert?
    Do you know a *convenient* way to store rinse water from the washing
machine, then send it to the garden?
