we are leasing a home for a few years. we moved in april and there was absolutely nothing in the flower beds, which go 3/4 around the house. i am wanting to plant some grasses or cacti, succulents....more desert plants but don't know if i can plant them in the fall and which ones are okay around the house and since it's not our home, i don't want to invest a lot of money. the house has a spanish feel to it and i want some plants with good architectural qualities. |

 Could there be more than one Stephenville?
Not a better one IMO, my favorite boot builder was once in Stephenville, now in Foat Wuth (I think). |

Amy- I think you're in zone 8 like most of us TX guys(except for Houston). If you want cactus & succulants, I'd use 'hen & chicks' b/c its easy & spreads. But takes a while to spread. Do you know your neighbors? You can't go wrong w/cuttings from friends & neighbors-free-& you can get creative. If you want to PM me w/address, I'll mail you cuttings of my 'hen & chicks' & also purple wandering jew which will grow even if you just lay it on the ground. I don't do well w/cactus, either I water too much or too little.
