I saw the thread about that! I have the video flagged to watch when I get time. Next year might be a good time, hopefully I'll have a handle on the basics by then .

Hah! It started out a simple yard cleanup..then I found sedums and couple other things and downhill from there. My wife has gotten a little wary of me scoping out nurseries.

Thanks . So far my luck has been pretty good. Out of 30+ plants, everything seems to be doing well except for my sedum makinoi 'ogon' - I think I've lost all 3 of those (to be fair, someone stepped on one...). I transplanted the 2 semi-survivors last night, but I suspect they won't make it. Sedums and semperviums seem like a good match for the climate here.
