Walking today Looks like a bed or worms!

And just look at it waiting for some nice spring weather, to leap into growing mode.

I know! There actually was quite a lot more than this, but I didn't have camera, only phone so a distance shot wouldn't have shown what it was! This house has 2 sides of different types of sedum! Its very dramatic this time of year!

Would love to see it again when it leafs out.

I am so excited. Look what Trish posted today in the Site forum.
The thread "Recomendation acorn special!" in Site Talk forum

Can you believe it, 5 acorns for each review you post. And don't forget, if your favorite nursery isn't in the list, add it and then post a review.
Go to the 'Recoommendations' tab at top of page. Or click on this link http://garden.org/reviews/

Now get to gathering those acorns, Sempervivum week is coming up and you are definitely going to want acorns for the raffle items.

I have this sedum that I got last fall and its not in the database, thought I'd share a couple photos here and then add better ones to the database
Its called S. album 'Black Pearl' can't wait to see what it does once I plant it in the ground!

What an interesting sedum you have Greg. It looks like a miniature shrub.
Here you go, a place to put that cutey in the database. Sedum (Sedum album 'Black Pearl')

Cool plant Greg. It does look like a little shrub.

Thanks Lynn, for database spot! I gotta find a good location for this little guy!

Found a couple of sayings about sedums that I thought were nifty.

Sedum or Stonecrop, is translated as "sprouting from the stone".

Here's an old garden saying "only stones require less care and live longer than Sedum."

True?

Almost, depending on which sedum it is.

Edited to show this sedum growing on the cement bridge.


This S. 'Cape Blanco' is growing on stone.

Marilyn I love that saying!!

It's perfect!

Lynn I love the first photo especially!! Very nice!

Sedum can be a very tough plant.

The second one does look like it is growing out of the stone.

Very nice

It's roots are literally deep into the tiny holes and crevices of the rock.
Here is a S. spathulifolium growing out of a crack in a rock wall, in it's natural habitat.
