I've learned a lot on this site, and I've enjoyed reading your posts. I've only been obsessed with semps for a year, so most of my plants are small. I will attempt to upload a few images.

Thanks again everyone!

Terry!

I am only on my 3rd year with semps.....love them!
People here are fantastic!

Terri Nice pictures!

Welcome aboard the good ship sempervivum Terri , steady as she goes .
Nice semps you have there .

Thanks for the warm welcome!
I've been working on repoting some of my semps. I really enjoy spending time with them.
I had no idea I would get hooked on these. The hubby said, "I didn't know you would have so many" LOL Little does he know, I already have a wish list for next spring.

Welcome Terri you're in the right place but it's dangerous!!! You're going to see so many things you want and none of us will stop you
In a little over 3 years I now have nearly 400 cultivars

Wow! That's a lot. I can totally see how it could happen though.
It will most likely happen to me too! LOL

That is what I was thinking too Terri! Look out

Hi Terri, and a big to ATP, and the Sempervivum Forum.
Great photos, we love seeing other peoples semps. And Greg is correct, we are very good at encouraging you in your new found love.

Well, I obviously have a lot to learn, but here's what I have so far. My hubby made me the raised planters for our cannas' and elephant ears'. The rectangular planter is for my semps.
I'm also in the process of replanting a few in new pots.

Wow!!!
Terri those raised planters are beautiful. What a talented husband you have. How big are they.
And just look at all those great pots.

Great containers, so great to have a handy hubby!

Thank you all for the kind words.
My hubby is sooo handy! And smart too, great combo.
The semp. Planter is 24"x48" and the other 4 are 24"x24"
I did treat my semps to a few new pots this spring.

They look to be perfect for easy tending.

So much easier than the set up I made last spring. All my semps (except the new ones, of course) were here until last month. If you can imagine it stacked higher and covered in semps. I think I have a better image on my phone, gotta check. The raised bed planter is easier on my back and I can enjoy these amazing wonders when I can get close.

Getting down there to tend was a drag.

It's gorgeous, though, love those rocks-on-edge.

But I hear ya, sometimes comfort has to win!

Terri, I love the crevice rock garden. At some time I would like to make a small one in one of the raised beds.

Actually, yeah, that would be the best of both worlds. I was thinking of doing the same thing in a large shallow pot. I do miss that look.
