I chose these plants because they can stand the hot, dry heat and this area is in the sun all day. Most of these were given to me this summer and were small plants.
They are a welcome addition to our entrance to the front door. And I don't have to water them very often. Their fleshy leaves retain moisture and they don't wilt in the hot sun.
The pots can be lifted off the gravel and placed in our greenhouse for the winter. I plan to have many more varieties next summer, These plants have more than doubled their size during the past month.
The stained glass stepping stone was a gift from my sister Carolyn. She made it for us when we lived in the country. The big rocks came from the farm and have fossils imbedded in them (seashells).
