Default hot, sunny, slopey, rocky soil

Latosha Washington typed:
Any ideas on drought tolerant perennials I can plant on a slope
that will thrive in rocky soil with full sun all day?
I'd like "set it and forget it" type plants, preferably flowering
but not required.

Thanks for your ideas!


Agave, yucca. Pavonia lasiopetala is one I really like, and have seeds I
could send you. Once you get one going, it self-seeds everywhere.
