I have 3 Gold Nuggets from 3 different sources.

This one came from an online nursery called In The Country.

This one came from a local plant sale in the fall.

And these two came from Tim out of the big bunch that he picked up at a local nursery. I got them at the clinic last year.

And they all sit side by side. And really change color quickly.

I was just looking at my Gold Nuggets today. I have 6 which are all chicks from the one that Chris gave us at clinic.There is at least as much variation in those 6 plants as there is in Melissas photos of ones from 3 different places. Not pinkish red tips now but 3 of them had that feature earlier in the spring. It really looks like I have 6 different varieties of Semps.

Let see how everyone's 'Gold Nuggets' are doing. Mine have gone through many changes over the last month.

Here are the 1st that I posted earlier in the thread. The smaller rosetta has gotten much darker and the other is starting to take on its green color for the year. Does anyone else's 'Gold Nugget' get dark like that?

This is a new one for me. It's in my partially complete Semp/sedum design. I've been holding off on finishing it until our stay-at-home order is lifted, which will be at least through next weekend.

Melissa is that three different containers? What a difference. I like the form of the rosettes in the second photo best, but all are beautiful. Lovey dubby

Lynn the first one is alone. The other two share a container. They sit right next to each other. Same potting mix.

I finally got a photo of some of my 'Gold Nugget'. All of these were from the same rosette.
