Arif thank you! I've heard of these before, how crazy!! Now if we could get some semps these colors that'd be very wild!

Interesting Arif. I hadn't heard of them before.

Just want to update you.... I went to Timberline Nursery today on my way home from picking up the styrofoam boxes as Tabby's

Although timberline did have a wide selection of wonderful plants even this soon, no Bukiniczia cabulica

Will still check at DBC once the weekend storm passes.

Avoiding jail so far.

They will never suspect you Marilyn.

I'd advise NOT bringing the styro boxes along with you...otherwise they may suspect
Thanks for keeping us updated! Do you know how many folks will want some seed or plants!

I do hope to be able to do some trades or just share some someday.

Perhaps these will be the vehicles that permit that. I will have to read up on seed saving, I guess.

Once your hens have babies (later in the spring) you'll have plenty to share this summer! The first batch of semps I bought were in May 2012, and by August I had plenty to share with friends!! It is amazing how quickly they do their thing!

I got a bunch (perchased and gifted) in spring 2012 but never developed enough to share, just a few offsets but It was a brutal summer.

Yes, so now you should be getting enough to share this year!! Most of mine won't be ready until late summer so I'll be trading around that time!

Oh my wonderful SIL, you will have little chicks coming out of your ears this year.

Its so hard to believe that when you haven't seen it yet!! I can't wait for some of my new ones to "baby up"!!!

Greg, I didn't know you've been a semp daddy for almost a year already. No wonder you have so many!

I can't wait for mine to develop their first babies Then I just have to find some like minded Brits to swap them with.

Kate, that would be great...Good Luck! Check out the British Gardening Forum and see if you can sniff any out!!???

Ooo that's a good idea Bev, as soon as I've got somee to share I'll place an ad there

Great idea Bev. I'm sure there will be others that would love some of Kate's plants.

Wish you were on this side Kate, since we'd all love sharing plants!!
Yes Chris, actually I got my first semp in November of 2011, but it was stolen from an alley so I don't count it! My first purchased semp was May 2012 and by July they had babies! It was amazing!! S. Arachnoideum tomentosa (very prolific!)

I have something to confess...I fell to the powers of the Lowes succulent rack today...
