I have a few- Black Mondo Grass is definitely one of my favorites....the color of the leaves is just remarkable.Faucaria 'Sato' is another favorite of mine-it blooms late in the year and it blends in well with the interesting rocks surrounding it.And you can't beat Arabis 'Old Gold' with it's beautiful almost tricolored leaves and its low spreading habit.

RE: All time favorite Rock Garden plant?

I have weak knees for Campanulas. There are so many species and most do well for me in zone 4 and I love knowing where they come from all over the world. That the campanula form has found itself, evolved, drifted with the continants, all over the planet. There are some great cultivars of course but my favorites are the species.
