Phlomis russelliana (Jerusalem Sage?), Stachys byzantia (Lamb's Ears), Astelia Silver Spear. Three of the most valuable plants for any garden. The foliage texture and contrast of these three is my idea of a perfect combination. All evergreen, and tough, tough and tough!! They haven't blinked an eye in the horrendous winds this month. Clearly great for hot, dry windswept locations!!
This is the driveway to our Hut. The Cerastium tomentosum is also terrific in the same conditions. Right now it is a sea of white flowers, which I will be weed-eating off in a few weeks. Simple! Add in a few accents like Stipa gigantea, Miscanthus Morning Light etc, and you have a super easy care and effective garden.
