Looks more like a collection of pots, nothing Ghetto here! Are those Hypertufa?

Don't ask my DH!

Actually most of the sempervivum are potted up to get a jump start on next year because I plan to have a sale at my house.

Mansions?

No, it can look like quite a mess some times!

Sempervivum are shipped bare root. They can be out of dirt for several weeks with no real damage - if the weather isn't too hot. I'd be happy to send you some, but our weather has been so insanely hot here that they're under quite a bit of stress and not looking their best right now. If you'd really like some next spring would be the best time to send them. I also got quite a few new ones this year that haven't multiplied enough to share yet, but may be able to next year. So let me know and I can make a note to contact you in Spring. I have a slight addiction problem with semps: http://garden.org/lists/view/g...

' slight addiction problem' is an understatement.

Your have list looks like a data base!!

I am not happy! I will be happy when the Daylily Fairy shows up and plants these things!
