The one that came to mind is nepeta. I have Walker's Low and never have to water it and it is in a very dry and hot spot.<br />It does get pretty large but I think there may be a variety that stays smaller....not sure about that.<br /><br />Butterfly plant (asclepias tuberosa) in orange or yellow would compliment the nepeta's pale blue beautifully.gldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03645803822598151817noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8333330062798605073.post-89377911985951166352011-07-05T12:28:05.214-05:002011-07-05T12:28:05.214-05:00Can't believe how this spot has improved since...Can't believe how this spot has improved since you guys had to get the tree cut down and when you started planting.

I am always astounded by how many varieties you have. It makes for so much interest in a garden and also helps to attract a lot of different visitors. I love all the views but my favourite is looking down on everything from the house. I hope your Dad will soon be feeling stronger and recover fully.Desireehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01069419364783245762noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8333330062798605073.post-6798448052018972432011-07-04T20:59:13.308-05:002011-07-04T20:59:13.308-05:00You have done so much work on this area since that...You have done so much work on this area since that tree came down, and it shows.

I have two and so far nothing is bothering them, but they aren't flowering yet. <br /><br />Good idea to put the screen around them!

Also some sulphur butterflies use senna too. I like the log rings, but think they need sunk in the dirt more for easier walking.Randy Emmitthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10292186655869617897noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8333330062798605073.post-62048477721292992772011-07-04T18:14:06.985-05:002011-07-04T18:14:06.985-05:00I hope you dad is doing better.
