I admire anyone who looks at gardening as a pleasure. My high school horticulture teacher pronounced me the proud possessor of a real brown thumb. I can't keep any plant alive inside or out. In desperation, I am now trying "Hens and chicks". I am told they will grow on a rock if that is all they have. Sounds like I might be able to keep them alive...I will keep you posted.....we are in week three, and one has decided to bloom, (so far so good). I have them in an old wheel barrow we drilled drainage holes in. I am getting ready for next year, so when spring comes, I will have lots of starts so we can create a rock garden with them. Fingers crossed.
