I'm hoping to have some Michael's Golden by late spring (fingers crossed). I agree that it might be easier to find true yellows with the sedums. Of course S. r. 'Angelina' is the old standby, but for a low growing, year round yellow, there's S. hispanicum minus aureum. Also Semp. 'Abba' kind of falls in that yellow-ish range.

Thank you Cynda.
And there is also another one that I find even better than 'Angelina'.
This one gives year round great color.

And it is a very tough Petrosedum. I think you would really like it Jo Ann.

Just had a lovely reply from MountainCrest. I had questions about ordering and how cumbersome the wishlist was.
Looks like I need to wait until March to order.

Is 'Gold Select' the Sedum featured in Kevin's 2015 picture above? (shown below) If not, anyone know what it is?

Yes it is Tim. It is an amazing sedum year round. I still have and love, 'Angelina', but this is my choice above 'Angelina'.

I will need more containers if I dont stop.

If you can`t quit, don`t! You only get to live in this life once and this brings you so much joy and beauty, got to enjoy
life! Buy more containers and keep doing your thing, besides, it is what keeps you happy and happy is healthy! Hurray!

UMMMMM about what ?
Plants to order? or more containers to buy.
I have lost the thread of thought here.
Ohhh the sedum, I have an order to go in March and chose Gold Moss

I also had my credit card hacked. It was the new one, safer, with a chip.
That was last Tuesday. Takes a week to ten days.
Netflix has let me know they cant renew because the card is no good, I also mailed Romence Gardens to tell them.Katie said they dont bill until they are ready to ship so I have until April there.
Its all the krapp that needs to be done.
The thieves got my number in a card reader when I made a purchase somewhere.
They charge $1500.00 worth of stuff. I had to go to the bank and file a Dispute Form. That took care of everything.

Its not one person. It's my understanding the card readers are fixed so the counterfeiters can take numbers of customers who make purchases.

I believe it was taken at the gas station as the card readers are outside attached to the pumps.
There was a news bit about this a few months ago.

The credit card numbers are sold in blocks of thousands to a syndicate that makes counterfeit cards and resells them to gawd knows who.
The 4 purchases were made either from four different people with counterfeit cards or form one person who made online purchases from companies in different cities.
Target in Middltone $700.00

Baby carriage from NewYork City $400.00
two other purchases from different cities

What frosts me is my card was supposed to be hack proof,the new design with a chip.

I knew about the card reader scam. We had a problem in in our area a few years ago. And it was rigged through ATM and gas station readers.
