YES! glad that happened. I got a O. japonicus too this year and it wasn't looking that good either, but it perked up and had a growth spurt. Am excited to see this one prosper cause I think it is so neat looking! nodding

M little O from spring 2012. Do you think the little one with buds is also an O? It appears to be attached to the mother plant but it could be a sedum as I had a bunch that got blown around

I snuck home some pieces of one of the sedums growing around the hospital in Escondido, CA. It looks a lot like yours, Greg. I'm guessing it isn't going to be hardy here? I have put them on top of a damp peat mixture in hopes they make little plants at the ends... MR

Hurray! Hurray!
What a treasure you found. Early Christmas present.
Mine did the same thing, just one lone plant came back this year, and very late at that. Congratulations. Group hug

Marilyn it does look like all of that is Orostachys, except for the little semp interloper. Big Grin
That looks like a very happy healthy colony you have going there. Hurray!

Here there Bev, are you going to show us a photo of yours?

MR, how are those leaf cuttings coming along?

Hi Greg, doing well. Had our first freeze last night, so have been out all day starting to clean up my perennial beds. Had a super busy summer and hate to see it end. How about you?

Cute Bev! Smiling

I have one that has showed up in a dish garden, and no Orostachys in the area. And it is totally different from any of the others I have.
I see it has aphids. Sad

I love how it has its baby rosettes clustered around. It will be interesting to see how they clump as they push "mama" away.

I don't know MR. I know they are used to having a winter dormant period of time.
