Drought Tolerant Plants
Growing Drought Tolerant Plants
more tips like this in the Garden Club- 1Water well for the first summer. Drought tolerant means established, not newly planted.
- 2Add grit rather than compost on heavy clay. Most of these dislike sitting wet in winter.
- 3Cut back after flowering rather than feeding. Rich soil makes soft growth that flops.
