Re: lithodora diffusa


I had wonderful luck with Convolvulus maritima - low growing blue 
flowers, in a hot dry spot with minimal water. My climate would be 
the same, or slightly cooler than Westwood.  I did plant it in 
October and never watered it. About the next August I felt sorry for 
it and watered it.  It died then.  I am sure with a bit of water 
along, it would be fine.
