Wow, the 2 I really wanted, "Polly Bishop" and "Helen Payne" aren't on Young's semp page.
Sold out fast no doubt.
Sheesh, What's a semp freak gotta do?

It kind of gets that way sometimes! I've decided (like you do too Patty) that I have to have signal on my phone in order to buy semps now a days, because I have to see what they look like on 3 different websites Rolling on the floor laughing Shrug!

Wow, I hope all of my named semps are true!
That would be devastating for me! I work so hard, like the rest of you, at keeping copious notes and photographic reference.
One company selling a "false" named semp, could inconvience an awful lot of collectors!

Stay vector and continue the search for semps on my "list".

Jungle Shadows, Lipstick, Polly Bishop, Helen Payne just to mention a few.

I wondered what the problem was. I was looking at vendors for a semp and jovi order and didn't think they had much of a selection. Now I know the sad truth.
What a terrible thing.
Mountain Crest was still "unavailable now" on many of their jovies. so I sent a order to Simply Succulents.
Cant wait for April 27th.

Jo Ann, The dealers get sold out very quickly on things that are rare or choice. Most have between 100-200 of these and they go fast. Most of our dealers want to sell a good division, with offsets and a major rosette, which makes this even more of a challenge. The heuffeliis are notably difficult to propagate and I think no nursery wants to send a plant that isn't fully rooted.

You might get on waiting lists and when a plant is available you will be the first to get it. Most will honor such lists.

I agree with Kevin. They really are great about working with us sempaholics.

MountainCrestGardens now has their Jovis ready for order. They say that they likely won't last long. I ordered 'Lemon Sky' and 'Sundancer'.

Great heuffelii Tim, you will love them both.

Can't wait to see what you order Jo Ann.

Going to look at MGC. I haven't placed an order yet this year. They have amazing plants.
My order from SMG should be here today. Hurray!
And Oakes Daylilies is suppose to arrive today. Hurray!
Going to be a busy day out in the garden. Smiling

Lynn, I think those two will be great Jovis too. They sure look good in your garden, I'm just hoping mine will measure up. Both of these will get ample sun exposure.
I expect to see photographic evidence of orders received. nodding

SMG has been sending out some extremely generously sized semps lately, at least to me. Here is 'Bros' and an Arachnoid. That Arachnoid looks like it has been growing there for years, but it just came in the mail two days ago. They're making me look like a real semp genius, but all I did was plant it. Talk about instant gratification. Big Grin

SMG always sends out generous plant orders.
That is a humdinger of an arach, they usually fall apart in transit. WOW!!!! It must be your gentle touch Tim.

The sun is shining, on my way out to the garden. Hurray!
