beta dog 2 running through lantana    real tough plant



the common feature of all these are that they can survive
most of them with out watering them  
they survive the hot dry summers here
they are very xeriscapic plants

they provide color to the yard when most plants are wilting
in the late summer early fall
most also provide seeds for birds through out  the winter
get a lot of bird activity during the winter as we provide a
good habitat for them and provide a water pond for them
also
