Once well established, lavender hardly needs any watering. You can then enjoy its delicate fragrance on summer evenings spent on the terrace. But it's far from the only sensible choice for novice gardeners. You can also opt for purslane. This herbaceous plant is particularly well adapted to warmer regions.
Valerian is another herbaceous perennial. It is native to the Mediterranean basin and has no problem growing in poor, dry soil. Sometimes considered invasive, valerian requires no maintenance or fertiliser. It multiplies so easily that gardeners are obliged to control its growth.
