They are lovely Valadel...

Obedience instructions for Houseleeks now in my latest comment under my houseleeks pic... Lol.

... Valadel... these look very well-behaved ... I reckon you said all the right things... ;o)

Thanks Michaella.:0)

Read the instructions but I reckon I was too stern because the green one has just turned to mush ( photo taken a few weeks ago ) Oh woe !

Oh, that's a pity....
maybe you would like to join in our grand Autumn Houseleek Swap ???

Matbe, but I think I'm out of your league Val.

I don't believe that Bellflower, not one bit ! :0))

Aaaah, thanks lol

Looking fantastic......

You should see it now, that little viola has spread and there are lots of baby houseleeks, I am going to plant the babies in a house brick that has holes in it, I am sure there is a name for them but not being a builder I've not a clue !

Sounds like a kind of Engineering brick.
Good luck with your planting :o)

Thats it T. you are a mine of information !
Thanks for that, I might put on a photo when its completed.

Yes, do put a photo on GoY :o)
Good idea...

I'm not a builder, either ... but from necessity over the years, I've used Engineering bricks, crazy paving etc. etc. !

Wow they're gorgeous - my favourites - do you know which variety this is - I have Robin, Green and Cobweb

Not a clue Paul, I half inched them from my daughters garden.
I left mine out in this 'orrible weather, do you think they will survive?

oh they're very hardy - the only thing they don't like is winter rain. my sempers have new growth on so that is good - their literal meaning is "always alive" . looked on Google and yours are carnival and cafe and they can also be called chicken or hens! Weird :D I put lots of sharp sand in the mix for them to grow in
