Hi Justin,

I am not sure that this  will help too much but  wanted to  share my  
experience anyway.

I visited Bathurst Harbour in Southwest  Tasmania in late  February  
this year ,on a  kayaking trip. During this time  we climbed  Mount  
Beattie which overlooks the harbour . Near the  top  there  were  
plants of Isophysis tasmania and  Blandfordia punicea growing in  
conglomerate. I have posted  an image below .  There  were other  
plants  growing  in more conventional situations.

Its an alpine plant which I am sure would dislike your Texas summers .

Rob in Tasmania
