Q.looking for drought tolerant plants
Looking for drought tolerant plants that will survive in a fine crushed rock environment. I have a 30-45 degree sloped bank on sand/round-stone fill. This used to grow coarse grasses and weeds and was difficult to maintain. I have now covered this with shot-rock and filled the spaces with finely crushed rock. I would like to find a variety of rock plants for this east facing slope, with some added top soil if necessary.
Thanks, Wilma
