If you're looking for drought-tolerant options, I’d go with a mix like lavender, ornamental grasses, sedum, and maybe some salvia or yarrow—they handle dry conditions really well and still give you color and texture; adding that rock border and dark mulch like in this layout also helps retain moisture and keeps maintenance low while making everything pop visually, this is the kind of setup that looks full without needing constant watering, take a look at this design https://app.neighborbrite.com/s/xJFf5hZJ9iZ
