Tarev, yours are beautiful! I love the shade of light green that the ones in the first picture are. Are those some of your noids? I never thought to check a hardware store for chicken grit! We have an Ace Hardware about 20 minutes away that I will check out the next time I am close to it
Greg, will they send roots down through the pebbles to reach the soil? Before I would just clear a spot for the offsets to rest on top of the soil and then pile gravel around them.
I think the ciliosums and hairy cultivars are some of my favorites. A bit sad that those two rosettes are flowering, but they have plenty of little ones to carry on and the flowers are a treat to see.
