Yes, they grow in full sun all day long and those pictures were taken at the end of autumn so they are very red. They can get quite lush and green if it rains well

They are considered pioneer species, found in very inhospitable areas, have you ever tried growing them?

I once found a broken-off flower stalk and brought it home and rooted it. It grew a little while but then died. I should try again

Plants taken from nature don't often adapt well. Or, if they are adaptable, they are already in cultivation

That's very true. Some of the plants I have living next door are very easy, others not at all
