Lol Kat, it does in a way :-)

Did you Sticki... have you photo'd it yet :-))

14 Apr, 2012

 

no not yet surreylad; could do with some rain on it!!
it was bigger than i expected; imagined about a 3" pot but the only one they had was around 6" pot and the plant is overflowing!!

blimey that is a big pot full....mine was only a 3" pot :-))

first GC had none so went to another and thats all i could find ~ £4.99 ~ tbh, i would have preferred a smaller one ~ easier to photo the leaves.

14 Apr, 2012

 

still a fiver is not bad, my 3" pot cost £4...

14 Apr, 2012

 

it didnt seem too bad, wont be able to get a picture like yours though, leaves are too tightly packed together
:-(

never mind when they die down autumn time seperate the bulbs and plant individually you'll be in business for next year :-))

14 Apr, 2012

 

i will do that

and........i got a sempervivum!!!

14 Apr, 2012

 

:-)) you'll have no trouble from it Sticki it's a great little plant, and any off shoots can be potted up to make little plants too...
