Five plants you can't kill

Neglect these plants all year - they'll love it!

Forget annuals, they're much too much like hard work. Instead, put in easy-to-care for, pest and disease resistant evergreens, drought-lovers and robust perennials that reappear year after year. Avoid lush plants from tropical climates that need lots of watering and feeding. Stick to plants from the Mediterranean, South Africa and California. Check growers' care labels before buying to ensure you've chosen trouble-free plants.
