plants that will grow in rock

I have several raised planters attached to my house that are filled with white, medium size, landscape rocks. It is more of a chore than I want to take on to remove all the rocks. Are there plants, preferably flowering, that will grow in these rock gardens? I live in South Fl and the planters are in shade, part and full sun. I hate these rock gardens so any help would be appreciated.

Re: plants that will grow in rock

Hello cherie,

 

Hello and welcome to the community!:smileylol:  If  you don't mind some of the rock showing, you could try scotch or irish moss in the part sun areas.. Full sun areas could be covered by crawling or bush iceplant or small leaf ivy.

Shade areas could be covered by vinca minor, the ground cover.Make sure that you amend  the soil that you plant in so that the plants spread easier.

 

Hope this helps,
