There are some very tiny semps out there. Here is one I have that I love. You can compare size with the little slow release fertilizer ball that was in the potting mix. Rosette 1" across.

This one is new to me this year, it looks like it is going to grow in a cute little clump. Rosettes 1 to 1 1/2".
Thank you Terri and Cynthia. It will be fun to find ways to use them in tiny containers when I have enough to do different things with them.

S. minor, rosette is 1/2" across.

S. 'Silver Angel' rosette is 3/4" across.

S. 'Murthal', rosette 3/4" across.

S. 'Mona Lisa', rosette 1 1/2" across.

Oh my gosh!!!!!

Are all of your semps larger types Cynthia.
Twit is the one that got me hooked on the tiny ones. I know there are many more that are verrrrrry tiny. Have to find some of them.

I noticed some of my little ones are already putting on offset. Teensy weensy almost microscopic offsets!

The tiniest heuffelii is J. h. minutim (hope I spelled that correctly)

Mountain Crest Gardens has small sedum and small semps (look under "species" for a few.

Twit, where do we find heuff. minutim? How small is it?

Haven't seen it but have read about it. It is an older cultivar, so I do not have a comparison with Kapo or Patens.

MCG had minutum.

I just looked, they still have it. : )

Some of my very fave tiny Semps are the montanum group - I have montanum minimum (each rosette about the size of a pea) and the very minuscule hookeri that you mentioned above.

Here's some pics of the tiniest ones I have:



















I have a couple more, but dial up is slowing me down!

Can't wait to see the montanum minimum.

The montanum minimum is the final one of that batch - as you can see, I'll have to re-write my tags before they fade off completely.

We must have cross posted when you did the above photos.
Boy would those be great in tiny pots.

That's the plan!
