I have a spot in my S.California yard (USDA 9/Sunset 24) that is
shaded and damp in the foggy winter ( and this year, soggy
winter!) and exposed to blazing sun in the dry summer. Violets
thrive until July then practically desiccate waiting for October.
I'm looking for a flowering shrub with an upright habit that will
tolerate these conditions and provide a bit of shade for the
ground cover. I'd prefer a California native, Australian, or
other Mediterranean climate plant that won't require a lot of
coddling. Any and all suggestions will be gratefully received!

THANKS!  Rebecca Edwards  e-mail: rivajane@pacbell.net
