Hi everyone, I'm planning on changing the planting in my south facing border to include evergreens for winter interest. The problem is the border is backed by a high wall and is very dry in the summer months. I have one or two Euonymus which are fine and Iris Foetidia which copes too. Could you give me any more ideas please?
