Tropical Look Garden

Description

This planting provides a tropical flair to the garden but uses some drought tolerant plants. The society garlic in front gives it an airy look with plenty of pink blooms while the large leaves of the elephant ears and the dwarf palmetto provide the tropical flavor. In the back, the pink blooms of the common milkweed provide food for the pollinators and the caterpillars of the monarch butterfly. This milkweed will spread and needs space to do so.
