Dry Gardens

This garden on the waterfront was inspired by Beth Chatto's dry garden in Essex England. I was astonished when I made my visit there. There are so many beautiful plants and combinations of plants to be grown in a self sustaining dry garden. No watering is necessary for these plants after they have been established.  

The garden filled with daisies, poppies, santolina, broom, and euphorbias.
