Greg, you gave me some of the Silver Stone and it is one of my favorites! Guess it's the "pom pom" look that I adore.

I do like that one too!! A friend of mine gave me some of hers, and its slightly different from what I sent you, more greenish, but still with the pom poms. It could be that its still adjusting but it looks interesting!

I was just thinking walking the dogs and I had a thought!!!

Maybe lemon ball and Lemon curl are different plants. The one I gave Greg and I think you Lynn was Lemon Ball , all of which is not evergreen. However Lynn your Lemon curl is still evergreen!!

Wow Spring, that could totally be true! Mine doesn't even have a glimps of life, and I had it in 3 different spots. For a while it was looking amazingly bright in the dreary autumn, but then the temps dropped and poof, it melted I think you're right that they are 2 different plants!

They are definitely two different sedum.
Greg I think your correct, I looked at photos of Sea Gold. It looks like a perfect match. It certainly is a keeper. Love it.

I know me too!! Didn't even think of looking for it in ATP database, haha! Glad you thought of it though!

Mystery solved on the unknown sedum. It is Sedum 'Gold Select'. I got if from Perennial Obsessions last summer. I found my original information.

That is a beauty! Hope to get some of that when I visit PO this May.

It stood out like a beacon when I saw it among her other plants. You will love this one year round.

Her place was just so fun, hard to choose. I want to walk her garden more this year, it is really fabulous.

A fitting name for that beautiful sedum!

I am not sure if she will be available on Sat. morning this year. Was thinking that we might be able to go Friday evening after the 3 other nursery tours?
Still trying to work things out.

Oh No!!!!! She is a must see, maybe Sunday after your house? Or like you said Friday late afternoon.
Drive Fast!!!!!!
Greg, we might have to get up really early to get this all done?

I will see if she will be available Sunday. Nothing would feel right without a visit to Perennial Obsession.

Lynn here is a photo of my 'Sea gold' which looks very similar (why I thought that's what yours was!)

Good to have the mystery solved!!

It certainly does look the same Greg. And you got yours from Cynda? She doesn't have a Sea Gold listed, but does have Gold Select. http://perennialobsessions.com...

No I got mine from a local nursery here in Seattle

This one from Cynda has year round color that is amazing.

I think my Aptenia is a gonner, especially since the December deep freeze. I took four cuttings off of it in the fall and I am transplanting them into pots now. I really love this sedum, so different from many others. I know of at least one local nursery that is holding a mother plant for cuttings. But you never know, with the cold weather we experienced this winter they could lose it. I hate when that happens, whether it is the Aptenia or other tender perennials. It really sets back the availability of unusual plants.

It is a lovely plant. I don't grow it because I don't want to baby sit it.
