Scenes from a Colorado Garden – June 2010

Here a few images I snapped from my “dry Xeriscape” garden at my home in Arvada, Colorado.  This garden faces southwest, and receives little to no supplemental watering.  The area was previous an irrigated lawn before I converted it to this Xeriscape.

Delosperma (Red Mountain and Mesa Verde Iceplant) and Actostaphylos x coloradoensis (Panchito Manzanita)
