New semp babies coming:
Sedum mongregalense, I know it's not a sempervivum, but is sure is a cute sedum. Lovey dubby
Sempervivum 'Chrysanthemun'
S. 'Le Claire's Hybrid #1
S. 'Menglehoef'
S. 'Midnight Sun'
S. 'Opitz'
S. 'Pacific Hepsport'
S. 'Pacific Taffy Pink'
S. 'Princess Little'
S. 'Red Pluche'
S. 'Safari'
S. 'Silber Kameol', another silver for you Chris. Hurray!
S. 'Silver Web', yeah another silver one.
S. 'Soft Line'
S. 'Waldalina'

I love the way SMG changes out the semps available. He is always giving us new semps for our collections. Hurray!
For those of us that don't have snow and frozen ground, this is a great time to start new semps. It gives them time to develop nice big healthy root systems before summer heat arrives.

Nice thing to do is cross reference with the database here at ATP, so we buy new varieties, ones that others don't have yet.
I love this database, it makes it so easy to do that. Hurray!

Wahoo, I just got an email from Cynda (Perennial Obsessions). Here is what she said:
We hired a professional to help us build a better site. So we are in the process of doing that right now. We hope to have it up and running (with full inventory) by the middle of February.

Hurray! Hurray! I can't wait to see it, and order from her new inventory. I know in this last year she had been working to increase the amount of semp varieties she has available. I can't wait to see what else she will have available. She has so much more than just semps. Hurray!

Congrats on your new tool, Pia! (I don't say "toy" because it's tools that we adults need for our adult hobbies/passions, right?) Looking forward to seeing your photos! Sticking tongue out
