(Herniary Breastwort, Rupturewort, Smooth Rupturewort)
Consider this small green plant a semi-succulent, sun-loving version of the popular, tiny leaved groundcover, baby’s tears. European in origin, rupturewort is a beautiful ground hugger for containers and small gardens in frost free climates. Unlike baby’s tears, it produces a taproot which enables it to resist drought.
This evenly green plant has densely packed, tiny, oval leaves that create a blanket of green over time. It rarely flowers and when it does, the blooms are tiny and insignificant....
(Redflower False Yucca, Yellow Sun False Yucca)
This is a tough succulent perennial that blooms over an incredibly long season once temperatures rise in the southwestern summers. It is native to the arid lands of Texas and Mexico, growing in well-drained soils with both grasses and agaves. It is strong enough to endure reflected pavement heat in the medians of low desert highways if provided irrigation. Narrow leaves give it a fine texture. Its neat clumps slowly spreading slowly if adequate water is provided.

(Dame's Rocket)
Dame’s rocket is a biennial or short-lived perennial that is native from Europe to Asia. It develops a rosette of toothy, hairy leaves that produces tall, leafy stems topped with four-petaled, phlox-like clusters of tubular white to pale lilac flowers from late spring to summer. The flowers are very attractive to insects and fragrant at night.
This easy to grow ornamental flowers best in full sun. Use Dame’s rocket in a mixed border or a wild garden. Double flowered cultivars, such as ‘Alba Plena’,...
(Hesperoyucca)
This is a new genus created to contain just three species. They are all native to the American Southwest and northwestern Mexico. They are most prevalent in hot, dry, mountainous regions of the west where they have been used by Native Americans for soap, food and fiber.
This group is easily identified by its distinctive rosette form composed of many narrow, stiff leaves. These are hard and blue green, and typically tipped with a single wickedly sharp tip. These are stemless and ground hugging.

(Alumroot, Canyon Belle Alumroot)
Originally developed by Dana Emery at the Santa Barbara Botanic Garden, Canyon Series alumroot was especially bred for compact habit and profuse blooms in all its cultivars. Although quietly attractive in their own right, the diminutive mounds of glossy, green foliage take second stage to the abundance of tiny, tubular, brightly-colored flowers which decorate the plants in late spring.
Alumroots in the Canyon Series need reasonably moist, fertile, well-drained soil and a site receiving partial...
