@sedumzz, followed your advice and repotted my clearance combo collections based on the type, except the one off ones that I kept in combination. Here are my remaining combination sedum and succulents:

Here are the individual pots! I am so pleased at the number of plants they packed in those clearance combo planters! And equally pleased because I don't have any of these.




I have 2 pots of these:





And I am so glad I separated these Climbing Aloe, the roots were massive and were starting to choke the tender succulents:



And also these bird's nest were starting to choke the tender succulents:

The individual pots look great! Soon you'll have a super bushy pot full of them… and they'll bloom en masse once mature

That's what I am hoping! I placed them in between my desert roses to attract pollinators and hopefully they visit my desert roses and cross pollinate them!

for suggesting this!

I think you'll also like hylotelephium, they will do great in Florida , even if they sometimes skip dormancy every few years. They should bloom every year, and some have super colorful foliage too

Oh yeah but I just searched it online and definitely will be on the lookout for those!

Gigi, I love your combo plantings! It's like each plant has to do its part in holding up their end of making the enitre planting look its best. I miss have tender succulents to do combination planting in containers. My only survivor semi-tender is a couple of Echeveria agavoides. I am on the hunt for hardy (non-border) sedums to add to my container plantings.

Bev, I just learned last year how to care for them. My succulent garden used to be on the West facing sun and they get all our non-stop rain around June to August. So they just rot and die, except for California Sunset that seems to be hardy, loves full sun and was able to handle couple of our cold nights.

So now all my tender succulents are under my covered porch, where they get morning sun and I can control their watering schedule. They are thriving at my back porch. So this will be the first year that I added a few more tender succulents in my combination pots.

I also underplant them on my desert roses and they seem to get along well together.

I've been Absent on here for a while. Been trying to do some reporting of the African violets before spring and work on some stuff for a certification for work. That being said. I know a lot of people like the sunsparkler sedums. Chris had posted on his Facebook that he is looking to introduce 2 new ones this summer.

The sunsparkler blue elf looks good!

My Blue Elf is waking up right now. Looking good and should be a nice sized colony this year.
I want to give SUNSPARKLER® Angelina's Teacup a try. Can't wait to see what else will come out this year.

This was the 1st time blue elf has made it through the winter for me. The last couple times I tried, it did not like my growing conditions. I probably wouldn't of given it a final try if Young's Garden Center don't have it in stock when I got some other sedums.

Blue Elf did okay here in zone 7 Fairfax VA, I did have to put it in a sheltered spot.
I had it along with a red-purple Hylotelephium from Sunsparkler, a red-purpe heuchera and sedum ternatum. It was a really good combo.

Nathaniel, I think you would love it when you find the right spot for it. I had to try it 2 times before I found it happy place.

I moved it over 6 inches from where I tired the year before. It has little stems coming up so I think it has made it through the winter!!

What great news Nathaniel.
