I get practically full sun in my yard. I do not put any supplemental water in most of the planting beds. All of these grow & bloom like crazy when it is HOT out.... I toss out Miracle Grow every few months. I do augment the holes when I 1st put the plants in.
Native milk weeds (darn I had just harvested some seeds when the rain forced me inside)
TX Star hibiscus
Turks Cap Hibiscus
Red pagoda
Amarynth
4 O'clocks
Lantana (bee & hummingbird magnet)
Bleeding Heart Vine
Bottlebrush
Mexican Flame Vine (won't even bloom till it is hot out)
Dwarf Poinciena
You can come over with a shovel & pots & help yourself to all my volunteers!!!
