TOP 3 LOW GROWING CALIFORNIA NATIVE PLANTS

When you are deciding on what plants to place in your landscape, it is nice to not only have a variety of colors and textures but also heights.  This adds interest in your garden.  These three are perfect if you want something that is low growing.  These plants get about 2'-3' high and are perfect placed in front of a groundcover.  


These 3 plants are:
  • Juncus patens - California Gray Rush
  • Penstemon baccharifollius - Red Penstemon 
  • Sisyrinchium bellum - Blue Eyed Grass

This continues a series of 10 videos about California native plants.  Each video will feature a situation that is commonly dealt with in residential landscapes.
