Patio Gardening

[skysidhe]

There wasn't a garden category so I put this here.


This is the first summer in this new apartment and I have found that his patio is too windy for flowers. They dry out like it's the sahara although I only get indirect sun. I do have a huge open view of the horizon though. I'm thinking I need some wind tolerant plants. I am thinking cactus and ornamental grass. Is there any flowers that will tolerate a windy patio? I did make a small screened off area with a bamboo shade. I am thinking of making a zen garden area since I can't have blooms.

Any ideas? Thanks
