"If this is your first time hearing this term, xeriscaping is the practice of planting drought-resistant plants in a designated landscape that doesn’t require frequent watering or irrigation."
"These small to medium-sized shrubs have clusters of bright blue flowers and oval-shaped glossy green leaves. "
"Rock purslanes can tolerate partial or full sun, and prefer to grow in well-drained soil. Being a drought-tolerant species, they don’t require frequent watering like most flowering plants. "
"Depending on the variety, the flowers are dark orange, white, lavender, or pink. These flowers also produce pollen and nectar that attract insect pollinators such as butterflies and bees. "
"These plants bloom in the spring through early summer. However, they are considered toxic and harmful, especially if you’re exposed to their sap. "
