Landscaping Year 1

See notes for following photo regarding underlayment for this hardscaped bed.  This is one of two beds that are surrounded by red lava rock.  The light colored rock is jasper, which is beautiful.  The goal is for the xeriscaped plants to eventually take over the whole bed.  There are ornamental grasses, apache plume, desert fernbush, and gaillardia, all of which survived the deer and the summer heat.  And 3 feet of snow for the whole of winter 2015-2016.  The bush at the top, which is an ornamental buckeye something or other, did not survive the deer.
