A Colorful and Low Maintenance California Garden
Plant Combinations, Spring Borders, Summer Borders, Fall Borders, Winter Borders
A glorious mix of colors, shapes, and textures for a long-lasting impact. Blooming over a long season extending from late spring to fall, bright red and pink Kangaroo Paws (Anigozanthos) cheerfully contrast with the evergreen ground-hugging Blue Chalk Stick (Senecio mandraliscae) and the incredibly elegant Agave demestiana 'Variegata'.
All plants are drought tolerant, deer and rabbit resistant. Created by Debora Carl Landscape Design, this low-maintenance and water-wise garden is absolutely fantastic!
