    Well my ‘drought resistant’ annuals didn’t handle the heat well. I might try and find the kangaroo paw seeds I had and plant those where some died

      If possible, try planting native perennials, especially those that are endemic to your area or the closest other natives you can. If you have a decent nursery nearby ask them for advice. You can also see if there is a natives gardening group in your area. You may get advice as well as plants to swap and propagate.
