Yup, Hosta's - in big pots under a big tree with water saucers underneath. Some have proven too thin leaved to survive but heavy leaved kinds like SUM & SUBSTANCE do well with watering once a week.

Yes, 26 inches of rain is good. And we use every drop of it but I do not pine for 36 inches or try to grow the kind of plants that need 36 inches of rain to thrive. And if we do not get 26 inches of rain my garden can mostly survive on much less because I've planned it that way and because I accept that drought and heat are part of the equation here. Tuberous begonias, fuchsias and delphiniums are not.
