Nice dependably mite free fuchsia.  Smaller than those old time mite prone ones, but classic basics and happy grower.  I have several planted in large containers with many other plants and they happy grow up and through them.  It is listed as an upright fuchsia but would start to lay over and trail at 1-2 feet without a little support or staking.

Graptopetalum paraguayense 'Ghost Plant'

Graptopetalum paraguayense

Another member of the jade family that I love for the ability to root new plants from even just the leaves.  Many do this but this one is also hardy to 25F.  Very interesting color that brightens up a planter.
