Looking strong and healthy Aman, shall you keep them in a cold frame over winter?

No, all these are as tough as old boots. Similar ones survived the two hard winters we had a couple of years back and a -14c late frost earlier this year.

I keep very little in frames over winter nowadays as I find they come into growth early and can get hit by very cold weather even in the frames. I use the frames for propagation of cuttings but these sedums are so easy they don't even need that.
