In today's video I look at some of the unusual and exotic Yuccas, hardy bromeliads and sun loving plants to go around my fire pit area. Drought tolerant, architectural and tough, these are great plants to bring evergreen interest and striking structure without needing winter protection. I also look at a couple of plant bargains from Vertigrow and Dean's Garden Centre near York.
