I'm not the only one here that takes great photos. I have seen them from all of you. Why do you think I keep going out and buying more semps. Rolling on the floor laughing

This photo of tabby's made me realize that I just had to have this semp. I still drool over it.

I love Mars. It is one that I would classify as a small end of medium. I'll have to measure it to see how many inches across. Wonderful coloring, beautiful year round. For me the most striking coloring comes in the summer.
It is not one that is totally red during it's red faze.

Lynn - I like the way the edges are the green color and the center part is redder. That is a nice plant! I'll get it for sure. LOL.

I think that color arrangement set off the red nicely. Very eye catching. It seems to be a tough semp for me. Not much bothers it in our rainy season.

When I see this picture I think "Tabby". Why is this semp not named "Tabby" instead of "Ann-whats-her-name"...? Rolling my eyes.

Oops, you are correct Bev. Going back to change my post. I remember seeing it in tabby's garden (which was amazing) and she was kind enough to send some home with me.

This is another red that comes to my mind. Another that I coveted because of the photo.

Oh no, Lynn, I was just joking. My point was that when I see that picture I think Tabby because it's her avatar and i was joking that it should be named Tabby; but of course it has its real name, Ann-whats-her-name... Hilarious!
