50 plants that survive and thrive on a dry garden

What if we could change the way we think of botanical beauty to include plants that thrive in hot sun and parched earth, and with little to no water? Following the hottest summer on record, this book explores the captivating variety that exists in the world of dry plants. From roadside daisies native to California and prickly pear cacti from the Mexican desert to the familiar sights of lavender, rosemary and yarrow, 50 drought-resistant species are presented in beautiful botanical illustrations from Kew's archives.
