Cotswolds Garden - FAQs
Frequently asked gardening related questions
Opt for species naturally adapted to dry conditions. Mediterranean herbs such as lavender, rosemary and sage thrive in sunbaked spots. Succulents like sedum and agave store water efficiently. Ornamental grasses (e.g., Festuca, Miscanthus) provide structure, while shrubs like buddleia and ceanothus flourish in poor soils. Consider native wildflowers like echinacea and rudbeckia for added wildlife value. Select plants with grey or silver foliage and deep roots for visual interest and drought endurance.
