Drought tolerant trees
Many trees are good at coping with drought situations which makes them ideal for low maintenance structure and long lasting interest in the garden. These trees develop complex root systems that can tap into water reserves deep in the soil. Some are very efficient in how they use water and function, if not thrive, under water stress.
