Shady Winter, Sunny Summer Slope

Springtime. 3 months after installing, this shady winter slope is starting to get some spring sunshine. Yarrow (Achillea millefolium), Monkeyflower (Mimulus/Diplacus aurantiacus), Salvia 'Dara's Choice,' Hummingbird Sage (Salvia spathacea), and Blue Eyed Grass (Sisyrinchium bellum) will fill in this space for low-maintenance and drought tolerant color. These plants are adaptable enough to tolerate the winter shade and the hot summer sun.
