The major problem with most pretty plants , is the high (alkaline pH) of the native fill. I didn't say native SOIL, because TV homes are built on fill from a pit. Average pH of 7.2 . Acid loving plants will not thrive in 7.2

Succulents and cacti will do just fine. The native cacti is a small prickly pear, and there is a native yucca, but neither are very showy for a small landscape as typical in TV
