Now I realize that some of these plants may live with little or no summer water
in Oakland where the summers are pretty cool, they might not classify as
'Mediteranean' elsewhere. My spellling needs checking , too.
I hope someone makes a masterlist of all the plants we all have listed and
posts it.
That's all I can think of for now.
