water saving gardens
succulent plants, lilies and aloes for the water saving garden
with photos and descriptions to build rock gardens
| Replace the lawn with pebbles and stones in fascinating patterns to save water and maintenance. Build a rock garden in the shape of a wall to fit into small spaces or hide and old wall. Succulents in containers save water too | |
| We have seeds from aloe species and hybrids which bloom at different times. Aloes are succulent plants which need very little attention in the garden and give a nice show whether in bloom or not. Combine aloes with other succulents and caudiciform plants for a beautiful water saving garden that needs very little upkeep. Aloes are easy houseplants and do well as pot or container plants, provided the plant medium drains well. Use a loose medium with plenty stones. | |
