Answer 1

lavendar is nice and needs almost no water

Answer 2

I love good old fashioned Holly Hocks. The flowers are beautiful and the practically grow by themselves. Plant them along a fence or wall. They grow from about 3 ft. to 9ft. When they are done blooming and begin to die back, just cut them back leaving about 6 inches at the base and within days they are growing back. You will be the envy of you neighborhood. I live in Southern Calif. in the inland valley where it is very hot and they just thrive here. And the best part is that they thrive in the worst soil. After they are established they actually do better if you leave them alone - especially when it comes to watering. I have some on my side yard that I never water. The more you ignore them the better they will do!
