Thanks Julia!!!! Thumbs up

I looked and I would love to have them but with shipping they would be over $18.00 a plant so I think I will wait awhile and see if they go down in price.

Would that be SunSparkler® 'Firecracker' Greg? Whistling
Wouldn't that one look beautiful growing next to 'Lime Twister'?

Chris, I think I will have to try both 'Lime Twister' and 'Firecracker'. Now to decide where to put them. Hurray!

The temptation was too great, and they take 'Paypal' - so...I ordered 2 of the Blue Elf,
I signed up for the email newsletter and got a free plant Sedum Firecracker! Hurray! Hurray!
Then more danger began - hellebores on sale (they look like succulents anyway!) So I bought 3 Smiling
Happy shopper I am! Sticking tongue out (I do have some perfect spots for hellebores, so its not totally crazy!)

A cross between a Sedum species and Orostachys. It's beautiful!!!!


Thanks for this information but the name x Sedoro is not valid because it's a crossing between a Hylotelephium (and not a Sedum !!!! ) and a Orostachys.

You can see a discussion (in french, I'm sorry ! ) here: http://forum.crassulaceae.ch/v...

In summary, the Hylotelephium genus is close to the Orostachys genus. This is why crossings are possible.
The name "x Sedoro" is not valid because one of these plants is not a Sedum. We have two choice for the name of the new hybrid genus: x Hylostachys or x Orotelephium.
The name is accepted only if a article is published in a scientific publication.

Baker's Acres in Alexandria, Ohio is supposed to carry these, and I am going there tomorrow! Also my annual pilgrimage to Companion Plants in Athens, and Glasshouse Works in Stewart, Ohio. DH doesn't love plant shopping, but he loves trying to make me barf by choosing the hilliest, most winding roads possible.
