(Livingstone Daisy, Mezoo Trailing Red Livingstone Daisy)
Mezoo Livingstone daisy is a sprawling to mounding plant with succulent green leaves edged with white occasionally accented with button-sized red flowers in spring. This annual succulent is from South Africa’s Cape Provinces. The small, round, daisy-like flowers appear on the stems among the heavy, elliptical, pointed leaves. Bright flowers with many petite petals remain open during cloudy weather unlike other Livingstone daises which close if the sky darkens.

(Dracaena)
The genus Dracaena includes about 50 species of evergreen tropical perennials with large shrub or tree-like habits. They inhabit a wide range of habitats, from forest to open, dry prairies, in the Canary Islands and Africa.
Young plants appear as ground-hugging rosettes of foliage, but as they mature they develop stems that branch out. The stems are topped with clusters of pointed strap or lance-shaped leaves of varying widths and textures. The stems can become very thick and trunk-like...

(Dragon Tree)
Named "dragon’s blood" in ancient times due to its peculiar red sap, this tropical succulent tree is most unusual. It is native to just a small area on the Canary Islands off the west coast of Africa. Plants there withstand incredible drought and high humidity. In habitat they grow to a great age.
When young, the dragon tree resembles other dracaenas and has rosettes of strap-like green leaves. In time a single trunk arises and branches into a broad umbrella-like head with clusters of foliage....

(Madagascar Dragon Tree)
Tufts of pointed leaves atop distinctly chevron-marked stems define the alien-looking Dragon Tree. Native to Madagascar, Dracaena marginata is the classic houseplant for most locations. Very cold sensitive, dragon tree is grown in the landscape in only the warmest regions. The leaves are long, linear, narrow and attached to the stem without a stalk. The leaf color is dark olive or gray green with red to purple margins. The stems or trunks usually are un-branched when young, eventually branching when...

(Madagascar Jasmine)
Though rarely seen in cultivation, dregea has pretty clusters of starry, buttery yellow flowers. Thick, waxy, evergreen leaves cover this slow growing, scrambling, shrubby, vine all year around. It reigns from tropical southern Africa where it thrives in open, scrubby areas along the coast.
Each oblong, oval leaf is leathery, deep green and lightly fuzzy along the leaf veins. Like many tropical woody plants, it blooms all year around in the humid tropics, as long as conditions are favorable....
(Ice Plant)
This beautiful ground-hugging succulent from the Cape region of South Africa is an intense bloomer for frost-free gardens. Its prostrate, shrubby stems spread to form flowing, cascading mats of glistening, jellybean-shaped, bright green leaves. This little iceplant blooms heavily in late spring and early summer, enveloping itself in purple-pink daisy-like flowers with yellow eyes. Flowers open in the afternoon only, and may stay closed on cloudy cool days.
Like most succulent plants, this one...
(Coastal Fern)
Native to the shaded woodland slopes of North America's west coast, from British Columbia to Baja California, coastal fern is an evergreen perennial that is typically found growing under tall trees in leaf mulch where there are few understory shrubs. The lacy fronds are long and are usually sprawling or arch-drooping. These are lined with glossy, finely cut, medium green pinnae, or leaflets. In summer, its fertile fronds develop round, green-yellow to brown-gray, spore-bearing “sori” that dot the...
