Grown in a pot as it would not withstand the altitude and the winter temperatures. Very attractive to ants and spiders. Below, a crab spider is investigating a nest made by another creature in the bay leaves.

Cueillie à l'origine sur la Montagne de Lure (2000 m) cette plante se plaît partout dans le gardin dans des pots ou dans la terre. Elle fleurit irrégulièrement tous les 3-5 ans.
This wild succulent is typical of the high regions of Provence. My original sample came from Montagne de Lure at 2000 m. It flourishes in Le Maurier garden in pots or in the ground and one summer provided a home for an unusual mountain frog.

En été, je remplis les espaces avec des plates cultivées. Ici, le tabac accompagne les iris défleuris.
In summer I fill the spaces with cultivated bedding plants. Tobacco is ideal in the "Cool Garden" for its discrete colour and lovely midnight scent.
