Looking good..

Thank you, Janey! I was a bit surprised it survived the terrible frosts of December last year. It was a gift from Shirley & so I'm very pleased it did survive.

Aha, ignore my comment on another photo David. I now realise it must be 'Autumn Charm' from my garden! Good to see it's growing well for you.

You are quite right, Shirley, it is one of the 3 cuttings you sent me. All 3 have survived but the dark coloured one, (can't remember it's name at this moment), seems only to produce one tiny rosette which is plain green! Also it's far away from the the old stem. I'm leaving it to see how it develops with the warmer weather.

David, I wonder if it was a piece of the Sedum 'Purple Emperor', a really dark plummy colour with pink flowers. I shall need to divide that one up sometime and you're most welcome to a piece of it.

Yes, it was but for the moment it's just a tiny green rosette as far away from the old main stem from last year as it can possibly get while remaining in the compost!

I'd love another piece as this may not turn purple later. I'd never grown Variegated Sedums before so I have no experience.

David, I have made a note to divide the S. 'Purple Emperor' for you to have a piece. Not yet, far too cold for that!

Thanks very much, Shirley! I looked at the smallest one today again but there are no signs that it will be anything other than green. The other 2 are growing really well!

At least two are thriving ... :o)
