Need some suggestions. I have an area, 8'X12', that I am wanting to use
for
some kind of garden. I am in the San Bernardino area of So. Cal. Hot, Hot,
in the summer, winter is mild, may see a 30-32 deg. once in a while. The
spot is on the east side of the house, full sun most of the day. I am
thinking a few tall cactus, some other plants that can stand the full
summer
sun without a lot of water. Needs to be manageable for trimming so it
doesn't get out of control for the small space. Your suggestions welcome.
Thanks.



Iceplant (sedums). There are several varieties and colors.
