I like this version of it:

The drought resistant part works well, too, since we don't water
outside
plants because of the cost of water here.


I don't know which cultivar I have. So many of the ones on that page
have purple flowers and green blades. Ours is in direct sun all day
(except about 2' of it which is shaded by the house) and is totally
dependent on rain. It can be hacked with the weed-eater, cut into with
the lawn mower and played in by frisky dogs who like cool grass and
still always look beautiful. It even looks great in the winter. I
think you'd literally have to dig it up and leave it out to dry to kill
it. Here's some pics of mine from both sides...ignore the dogs.

Cute dogs.


In the first photo the plants are a little yellow at the tips. Is that
from being trimmed or hit by a mower? Or was it just an off season for
it then? The plants in the second photo are lovely.
