Don't Forget To Add These for Your Plants:

Dwarf Devil's Backbone is the compact version of the native woody evergreen succulent subsrub with zigzag stems resembling a spine and medium green leaves.  Stems with clusters of showy two-lipped red bracts cover small scarlet flowers at the ends bloom from late spring into summer and are followed by fruit capsules.  Best shape with afternoon shade and well-drained soils.  Good drought tolerance.  Broken stems have a mildly poisonous white sap when damaged.  Rarely flowers indoors.
