Lifesaver Plant
Huernia
Huernia is a genus of low-growing, clump-forming succulents native to eastern and southern Africa, prized for their soft, toothed, cucumber-like stems and unusual star-shaped flowers. The most widely cultivated species, Huernia zebrina, produces cream-to-yellow blooms marked with maroon zebra-like stripes and a glossy, donut-shaped center ring that resembles a lifesaver candy - the source of its common name. Like other members of the milkweed subfamily (Apocynaceae, Asclepiadoideae), its flowers emit a faint carrion-like odor to attract fly pollinators.
Red Dragon Flower
Huernia schneideriana
Huernia schneideriana is a fascinating succulent native to East Africa. It features grayish-green, cylindrical stems with prominent teeth along the edges. Its flowers are the main highlight: small, bell-shaped or star-shaped, with a velvety interior of dark red or intense burgundy. It is a low-growing or slightly trailing plant, making it ideal for hanging baskets or succulent collections in small spaces.
Frogbit
Hydrocharis
Hydrocharis is a small genus of five free-floating aquatic plants in the frogbit family (Hydrocharitaceae), found across Europe, Asia, parts of Africa, New Guinea and the Americas. The one usually grown in garden ponds is European frogbit, Hydrocharis morsus-ranae: rosettes of round to kidney-shaped glossy leaves about 3 cm across, often reddish underneath, floating on the surface with long dangling roots. Plants spread quickly by runners into mats 0.5-1 m wide but stay only about 10 cm tall. In summer they bear three-petalled white flowers, 2-3 cm across, with a yellow spot at the base of each petal; male and female flowers grow on separate plants. In autumn the plant dies back and survives the winter as small dormant buds (turions) that sink to the bottom and float up again in spring. In warmer parts of Asia its relative Hydrocharis dubia plays the same role in ponds and paddies.
Marsh pennywort
Hydrocotyle vulgaris
Marsh pennywort (Hydrocotyle vulgaris) is a low, creeping perennial of the family Araliaceae, native to wet meadows, bogs, and pond margins across Europe. Its rounded, umbrella-shaped leaves form a dense mat that spreads readily over saturated soil or shallow water, making it a popular marginal plant for ponds and bog gardens.
Red Pitaya
Hylocereus costaricensis
Red Pitaya (Hylocereus costaricensis) is a climbing cactus native to Costa Rica and Central America, prized for its intensely red, sweeter-tasting flesh compared to the white-fleshed variety. This succulent vine has triangular, fleshy stems that climb using aerial roots and needs a trellis or support to thrive. It produces enormous white flowers that bloom only at night and wilt by morning, followed by pink-skinned fruit covered in leathery scales that reveal a vivid ruby pulp dotted with tiny edible black seeds.
Dragon Fruit
Hylocereus undatus
The dragon fruit (Hylocereus undatus) is an epiphytic climbing cactus native to Central America and Mexico, now widely cultivated in tropical and subtropical regions for its exotic fruits with pink skin and white pulp speckled with black seeds. Its green, triangular, and succulent stems grow like vines, clinging to trees, walls, or trellises via aerial roots. At night, it produces massive, fragrant white flowers that open for only a few hours, earning it the nickname 'Queen of the Night'.
Autumn Joy Sedum
Hylotelephium
Hylotelephium is a genus of succulent perennial plants in the family Crassulaceae, formerly classified under Sedum. Commonly known as Autumn Joy Sedum or showy stonecrop, these plants are beloved for their fleshy, blue-green leaves and large, dome-shaped flower heads that emerge in late summer and persist through fall, providing late-season interest in the garden. Native to Asia and Europe, they are exceptionally hardy, drought-tolerant, and attract butterflies, bees, and other pollinators in abundance.

In late summer and autumn (September-October) it produces dense, flattened clusters of small creamy-white to pale pink flowers that attract bees and butterflies. Long treated as a subspecies of Hylotelephium telephium (as Sedum maximum), it thrives on dry, stony, calcareous slopes and forest edges at elevations up to 2,500 m, and is prized in gardens for its drought tolerance and low-maintenance nature.
Showy Stonecrop
Hylotelephium spectabile
Hylotelephium spectabile, commonly known as Showy Stonecrop or Ice Plant, is a hardy succulent perennial native to China and Korea. It forms upright, clumping mounds of fleshy, blue-green leaves topped with flat-topped clusters of star-shaped pink flowers in late summer and fall — a magnet for butterflies and bees.

Cypress-leaved plait-moss
Hypnum cupressiforme
Cypress-leaved plait-moss (Hypnum cupressiforme) is one of the most widespread creeping mosses of the temperate zone. It forms dense, soft carpets with creeping, regularly branched stems resembling tiny cypress branches—hence its specific name. It grows on soil, tree bark, stones, walls, and decaying wood, in both shade and sunnier spots, easily adapting to a wide range of conditions. Due to its low maintenance and attractive appearance, it is popular as an ornamental and groundcover element in gardens, terrariums, and vivariums.
Catsear

This sterile cultivar forms dense, upright clumps 12-18 inches (30-45 cm) in height with a spread of up to 3 feet (90 cm) and is often used as a groundcover or edging plant. While 'Red Baron' itself is not considered invasive, the species Imperata cylindrica is listed as one of the world's most problematic weeds, so gardeners should remove any solid green shoots that the cultivar may occasionally revert to.
