Default A low maintenance plant for concrete slab that gets full sun in the morning.

I would like to add a few low maintenance plants for my concrete slab for a little privacy. We get full sun most of the day, especially in the morning. Does anyone have any suggestions for a hearty plant that requires little maintenance. Thank you.

Desert Rose, Mandevillas, Hibiscus, Day Lilies, & Plumbagos are what we have in full sun. Lots of blooms and low maintenance.

The Desert Rose does not like a lot of water so you will have to bring into lanai during storms. We bought ours at Farmers market in Brownwood. It is beautiful.

We have gorgeous Vincas around our house that have beautiful waxy leaves and gorgeous flowers. They even re-seed themselves. They kind of look like an impatient but do not require as much upkeep.
