Water Saving Plant Combo for Full Sun

The chartreuse umbels of Bupleurum fruticosum are contrast with its base of green foliage and echo the golden tones of the duo of evergreen conifers; both with golden foliage, but strongly contrasting forms. Swane's Gold Italian cypress is strongly upright and Daub's Frosted juniper is very horizontal and spreading; together this three plants make a strong architectural frame for the perennial flowers selected for ease of care and hardy constitution.
