Grassy Bells (Edraianthus tenuifolius) can be grown successfully in unamended poor and drier soils; no rock garden is required. The planting area for mine is topped with a thin layer of crushed limestone, and its position is under a southwest-facing roof overhang, in an area where generally only fast growing weeds would survive. Nice carefree plant for tough areas that receive little summer rainfall.
