Tim, your picture is just what I needed to get an idea for the edge of our patio. The dirt slopes away from the concrete and currently I get volunteer petunias every year growing around the patio, which I love, but would like to add other plants that will fill the area during the times when the petunias aren't in bloom.
I won some semps from The Sempervivum Patch in the June not-a-raffle-raffle and they are in pots now, but happily awaiting a place to grow and spread. I just need to get some rocks!
