thought Graptopetalum Paraguayense would(with protection(-;)become invasive in Iowa.

Here's to all the global warming pushers, may your winters be -30 below and four feet of snow in your driveway. Because I want you happy.

Looked nice before as well as after. I planted some Graptopetalum Paraguayense last year it struggled at first then towards the end of summer it started to look better. I covered them up in my cacti bed with a cold frame so far has got down to 6 degrees and they are still alive.

Gravel really makes desert beds look good, but its color still went well with your varieties.
It's not invasive until it comes up in your neighbor's yard. 😉
