I recommend planting pig face plants as they give you colour nearly all year round, are drought resistant, insect free, good ground cover and choke out weeds. Excellent easy care plant that comes in many beautifully colours.

I am a big fan of bromeliads for low care plants which can look spectacular and have very interesting colours and shapes. The best way to get good /interesting ones is to find a local brom society as many of them have yearly and some monthly sales a LOT cheaper than garden stores. It is very easy to go overboard... last time I spent $160 but got about 30 different ones and they are all multiplying. If you have shady areas or trees they will do fine as many will also grow in full sun.

carry the same theme thru to the front..you could try larger Yacca plants , they look great if you use red rock to top dress as mulch
