    Dollars and Sense
    We used 12 plants in Hardiness 9.

    • The most expensive part of the landscape was the River Stone, at $810 dollars.
    • The three palm trees were also expensive, at more than $200 each. You can save money by buying smaller trees.
    • The least expensive plants were the Society Garlic, at $3.50 apiece.

    Plant prices may vary by zone.
