No water, no problem. And no sacrifice necessary—you'll be pleased with how good this combination looks year-round. This combination of low-maintenance plants provides a succession of colorful blooms from early spring to late summer—and if all goes well, into early fall. When not covered in flowers, plenty of evergreen foliage and a diversity of shapes and textures keep it interesting.
