Re: Companion Plants


Patriot and So Sweet have been good for me from the newer ones.  
Royal Standard does better with some shade but is surviving and 
flowering, it tends to wilt in the afternoon sun.  
I think it is albomarginata contorta but not positive, has been o.k 
in three quarter sun
Junipers are good shrubs because they can get by with very little 
water and love the sun.  They can also be pruned to keep them from 
wandering.  Blue Star is one that is particularly nice.
