Plants for around fountain

sonias
19 years ago

This past summer I had my front and back yards completely re-landscaped. It came out great.

I have one problem area around the fountain in my backyard (the Before and After page has the best photos of this area). The fountain has a 2 foot wide planting bed around it. The splash leaves the soil damp. Cuphea was originaly planted, but died because of the moisture.

Any suggestions on what to plant? The area gets full sun in summer and part sun in winter. I live in the Los Angeles area about 3 miles from the ocean. The landscape design in my yard is mediterranean/tropical with lots of palm trees. The flowering plants are all perenials with flowers in purple (lavendar, salvia, geranium, verbena) or orange (bird of paradise, canna).
