THE COMPLETE GARDEN 



B. Dry Locations. The plants in the following group are es- 

 pecially adapted for growing on slopes which are continuously more or 

 less dry. The heavy foliage of the plants often forms a ground cover 

 which conserves the moisture and many of them are the deep-rooted 

 types which will thrive on sandy soils where a normal amount of water 

 is not always available.
