Definitely not Sedum 'Angelina', but a great one anyway.
That is a wonderful photo Marilyn.
You took your camera, and didn't take any photos? Blinking

I have to go find mine.

Wow Chris, those really have filled in, and beautifully at that. Love the piece of firewood, and that little red semp is framed so beautifully by it. Lovey dubby
I have to keep going back to look at the big log, it is so intersting. And all the plants look so happy and healthy.

Yes, I'd love to see an updated picture of yours Lynn.

I was surprised how the plants took right off in the big one. Of course, some have to show off and bloom right away. Glare

That little one had been split for firewood, but when I spotted the rotten middle part, well, of course I had to grab it! I'm sure people around here think I'm a bit crazy. Whistling

Rolling on the floor laughing I know because I have this rose hedge which borders my little bit of semp yard from the sidewalk, and from the sidewalk it feels thicker and more private than it actually is, and several times I've heard people make "less than friendly comments" about the amount of time I am spending looking at my plants, or taking photos Blinking I just laugh, I know I'm a "Semp head" Thumbs up

nodding Connie that's funny! For me its not so much the "working" in the yard that I get "called out" about, its when they see me just kneeling or sitting and looking glazedly at my babies! with my camera out, and they see it happen day after day and they think, wow this guy really likes his plants! Big Grin Rolling on the floor laughing And I do, so there ya go! Hurray!

Well, I am into peak hybridizing time for my Japanese irises and lilies so I expect to my neighbors it looks like a freak show when I am out there. Just wait until you start breeding semps then see what your onlookers have to say!! Hilarious! Rolling on the floor laughing .
