I just purchased a Semp that looks like a Jade 'Gollum'. Looks neat. Does it survive our zone 6 winters? Is it hardy? I am too lazy to read thru all the other post so please forgive me and help me out.

Data base says good to zone 4.

sorry thought you wanted oddity.

I'm in zone 4B and it's hardy for me. Now that you mention it, it does look similar!

Carebear, your 'Oddity' looks great! So many babies on it!!

Thanks all.
I plan on separating it and planting it in a window box and leave in the yard then come winter, bring on the porch to enjoy all winter long. So far I have done this to my collection but I planted them too close and now have to separate them and have some real problems. I do believe I was told that here when I first started this. At times they all look alike then in a few months they are different and the colors come out and wow. Just like I was told here. Thanks again.

They are amazing little plants huh!

Oh, your Oddity is awesome! And so many little wee ones! I just came across some Gollum jade and was very tempted. Your pic makes me want to go back for it.

Jamila, especially since you're in FLA, so you can have it outdoors year round! Mine has to come in during winter!! (along with many other plants!)

Stush that's a great Oddity you have. So glad you are getting to see color change in your semps. Isn't it fun.

Lynn,
Just as you said would happen. Thanks again.

I love the comparison photos.

I'm in Zone 3a and S. 'Oddity' is perfectly hardy for me - outdoors year 'round, with no winter protection except natural snowfall.

Thank you Kate, it is good to know that it is hardy to your zone 3a, with snow cover.

KateKen you would be a good test garden for semps and hardy succulents :P

Yes, I would. Everyone feel free to send me all your extras for winter testing.

Exactly! And also sedum to see how low of a zone they can get to! (see I'm helping you out here Kate! )

What I do know is that I am not hardy in zone 3. My zone 6 is way too cold for me.

I'm with you Stush, zone 6 is way to cold for me. Your little emoticon looks frozen.

If I lived in Florida where my friend does and I visit him every year, There would be no room for grass to grow on the lawn. Now that I can pack up and move, the wife will not leave her family. Come to think of it, I can't either.
