The first photo here shows the spot after we had cleared out all the weeds and finished the first plantings, mainly succulents moved from other spots on the property.
The second photo shows how well the hedge grew after we put the cuttings in. Remember, this is a garden that relies on rain for water. The big hebe hedge is amazing. It has never hinted that it wants watering. In summer the other plants shrivel a bit, but not Lady Hebe. She manages well. The mulberry in the centre also sees to be drought resistant. We did well in this spot.
