| I have two spots that will each need an anchoring shrub soon. I am removing two plants that have grown well, but aren't all that attractive to me: a groundcover ceanothus (too low) and a black sage (salvia mellifera - boring, sad to say)
Can you suggest shrubs to me that meet these requirements? 1. Drought tolerant/xeric
Other plants doing well in the same area include yucca, aloe, achillea, chasmanthe, leucadendron, agave, psoralea, echium, tibouchina, leonotis, leptospermum, various salvias, penstemon, eriogonum etc. thanks! |
