Worried about how the dry, hot summer will affect your garden?
Worry no more and plant a few of these plants that will thrive in the heat.
1) Lavandula x intermedia 'grosso'
 This lavender hybrid flowers in July and August; they grow to about 2-3 ft and the tall stems ar topped with slender tapering flowers a deep violet color and have a clean fragrance.
2) Lychnis 'Hill Grounds'
 This Lychnis outperforms any other; its hirsute, silver foliage brushes off heat and the pink flowers blossom from May until October.
