Avondale Estates garden: The 10-year plan

In this dry shade garden, Myers incorporated hosta, hydrangea, Japanese ginger, a honeysuckle shrub and spurge. The plants are drought tolerant, which is good news to Lin Inlow. "I work full-time and travel a lot," she said. "I can't be a slave to a sprinkler system for my plants." Text: Katie Leslie, Photo: Sara Hopkins / AJC Special
