Dietes close up

These indigenous Iris and my roses are about the only flowers I still have in the garden atm. The rest is an awful mess and needs redoing. I had a gardener replacing the lawn yesterday, so hoping it will grow again. The rest all needs redoing. Bad time of the year for it, as water is still scarce.

I wonder if you have landscaping especially for your dry climes? We have a lot of drought tolerant plants and most landscapers are using them now.

funnily enough, my iris is also the only one in bloom, the others I just bought now. Well point water is helping for garden

@louannwarren Yes we do Lou Ann, especially now after two years of drought. Everyone seems to be planting Aloes, Proteas and Fijnbos now.
