Between a Rock and a Hard Place

This lantana is growing in our front garden, which is focused on drought tolerant plantings. Although the color scheme there is purposely kept rather subdued, this shot of color is a welcome accent, especially with the rocks as a background.

You rarely see orange in any of my gardens but when I need a focal point to draw the eye, it can't be beat!

Love that shot of orange. I often joke with my parents that I'm going to sprinkle california poppy seeds in their very subdued pinks, purples, blues and whites.

The whole setting is really nice. I love rocks and that orange really pops against the rock!
