I have a bank - done out as a "rookery" of sorts.

The soil is poor and very dry. Its east facing.
What can I grow that will stand the conditions? The plants need to be low
maintenance, evergreen if possible and growing to about 2/3 ft
All suggestions welcomed with thanks

What would be more use to you than what we can put in short emails would be to get Beth Chatto's 'Dry Garden' from the
local library, quite a short book with valuable lists, descriptions and even some planting plans.

Definitely worth looking at. There are lots of suitable plants, from
cistus to Passiflora caerulea (!), so don't regard that book as a
complete list. But it will help.
