Ever thought of cacti?

But don't overwater them either.

I've left some in school from July to Sept. without water and they
survive.


I'm not really keen on cacti, but I do have an aloe vera. That gets
left for loooooong periods without water, and then suffers a sudden
flood before another drought. That is according to the instructions
on the box, and it is working well so far...

On a similar note - anyone know the name of a little groundcover plant
that I assume is a weed? It looks like a reddish-brown clover. It
covers my borders and even pots. I'm gonna leave it this year. It
looks nice and it's winning.

If you find it useful and/or attractive, then it is not a weed.
