plants suitable for a stoney bank

We have a very rocky garden and need to cover some banks with very little soil with plants that also need very little water (we live in Spain) currently have a succulent with amber foliage and small red / pink flowers but they look dead!!

    Cistus, helianthemum, lavenders all love poor ground even pinks will do well on thin soil. Penstemons are drought resistant as well.
