Kevin,
Yes 'Lilac Time' is a favorite of mine to, even though it's slow growing and doesn't offset all that well. Probably my brightest waxy semp after 'Silver Song'. Of the others from that category, 'Soul' bloomed out on me last year and I no longer have 'Silverine', I've had worse rot problems with 'Lavender and Old Lace', after those 'Rita Rose' (which is more pink) and 'Pacific Blue Ice' (which is more blue) are really my only other waxy plants. I've considered buying 'Wolcot's Variety' and 'Pink Delight' on several occasions but never have. Are there any stronger growing light waxy cultivars you'd recommend?

Paleo,
'Othello' isn't one I grow.
I tend to baby my more sensitive varieties, but as my collection grows I become more and more tempted to just let them rot away, more room to try new cultivars.

-Sol
