If you guys have any suggestions for me I'm all ears. Being new up here I'm floundering a bit as to what may or may not do well for me. My conditions are sun, sun & more sun although I do have a large area which receives a good deal of shade. Nothing is convenient to water. There are only 2 spigots on the house -- 1 at each end & we have not had opportunity yet to run any additional lines & it probably won't happen until next year. We are mostly sand but there are areas of clay. Drought tolerant would be key. I'm trying to stay away from pots. My aim tends toward the wildflower/naturalized effect.
I'm wondering about alstroemeria. I do love them so & they just wouldn't grow down south. I'm also looking at LA lilys. Other than that I'm a little out of my depth so any help would be appreciated.
I am a strong believer in the simple fact is that what matters in this life is how we treat others. I think that's what living is all about. Not what I've done in my life but how I've treated others. ~~ Sharon Brown
