I love these Autumn Saxifrage, this is a new one. The foliage is a thick & fleshy nearly black.

I think this is one of my best ones, I have quite a few now. It does look rather tender because of the fleshiness of the leaves but I think it will be okay, & of course they do die down a bit during the summer months. A lot of people think they have lost them untill they find they have dug the roots up.
