PLANTS FOR DRY SOILS 
Often it is extremely difficult to find plants that will thrive in soil that is 
quite dry. These plants are among the best for such situations and when 
established seem to enjoy well-drained and rather dry soil.

PLANTS FOR MOIST SOILS 
MOST plants will not stand a location that is quite moist a great deal of the 
time. These varieties, however, do not seem to mind considerable moisture if 
proper drainage is provided. In many cases it increases their growth and 
gives them finer foliage. 
Care must be used in choosing varieties that will best suit your particular 
location and we are prepared to help you plan correctly.
