When we last updated you our backyard looked something like this--
And now, with the drip system in place
we have been able to plant many varieties of drought tolerant plants and this area now looks like this--
Before the construction--
And where we are now--
As you can see, our little ceramic birdbath remains part of the new design plans, which I am certain will make our feathered friends happy. Some of the plants and grasses we decided to use include:
- This Golden barrel cactus – Iris beware!
-
- Aeonium clyclops
- Agave
- Blue fescue - a hardy drought resistant grass
The next step will be to put down the decomposed granite and sand to create pathways.
We purchased all of the exotic plants from World Wide Exotics Nursery and the blue fescue grass from Armstrong Nursery in Glendale.
We will keep you posted as we complete each step of this transformation.
Have you altered your landscape as a result of the drought conditions?
