Ok thanks!

I can come plant it for you too!

Well, certainly red yucca does very well from seed, as does coreopsis spp.
No
seed will do as well if you don't keep it moist till it germinates and
gets a
good start.

For this reason I recommend plants you have grown from seed first, then
transplant them to the condition you mention. However, your effort would
be
futile if you think you don't have to first establish plants by giving
them some
nurturing. In nature, sure, these germinate on their own and bloom and
grow.
However, only under certain conditions. Nothing is random, but right
conditions
must be given, even for native species.

With that in mind, I suggest you do a web search for what you are looking
for as
this can go round and round and round.

How about anything that might work well from seed?

I have a very rocky escarpment, some loose rocks, some large areas of
limestone. Any flowers that are drought and heat resistant that will
grow
in
rocky soil? Get's full unprotected sun all day.


Blackfoot daisy
lavender
rosemary
lantana
Salvia gregii
red yucca
agaves
prickly pear cactus
