RE: drought

I like the grey form best, very nice with the lavender flowers against the
grey foliage. Usually though the one you see for sale is the green one, here
that's true anyway. 
It will defoliate a bit in very cold weather and also if it gets too dry,
but so far has always come back.

Nice plant, Cyndi. It's used quite a bit here, too.
