What is the succulent in the last photo? The one with the lovely red tips?

I dunno sorry but they are green in summer and have yellow flowers



I have about 200 ish... You can put the stalks in soil and soon bud into life...I do think something likes to eat them....

Sunrise...

The sun comes up at about 8am ,I look out of the window and think I should be at work...

Still beautiful.

Wow really beautiful Mick!! Cheers!

I was doing loads of stuff in the garden today mainly planting semps...

this time last year my garden looked like this...



mrs mick decided at Christmas she wanted a swimming pool...

so all the soil came from here ,by wheelbarrow...



eventually after loads of work it turned into this...




Now I have extended my semp conga and round the edge and more features ,I knew it was a ideal opportunity to plant more succulents...

More pictures will follow round the edges...

btw mowing the grass today spring is in the air...

Wow Mick that looks brilliant!!

Double Wow!!!
What a wonderful thing you did for your wife.

Triple wow Mick! Very nice!! (sneaky way to get more succulent space though!)

Mick, Does this mean you will have to devote some of your plant fun for pool-cleaning fun?

Yes ,but I knew zero about swimming pools so "you tube" helped me find ways to make the pool better ,ie adding more filtration etc...

I will post pictures of the banks later...

Beautiful job Mick! That's quite a major project.

The house was much worse..



a few pictures of around the pool etc

The conga extended







a few round the steps not sure what to do with the sides..



found loads of interesting stones..









It is only a small start, but I am busting to continue .....

Very cool!!

What a project. That is all going to be amazing Mick.

My back hurts just thinking about moving all those rocks. You're sure doing a great job.

Spring has sprung...

But I am thinking I am under the weather.. Someone gave me a lovely pair of old stone pots with semps in them and I took them out.....





But managed to sneak some in...

My next doors had these lovely yellow flower bushes, so I planted some in mine and it now looks like they are all in my garden.. :nodding:




Got some sedum flowering..



another sedum is thinking it`s a ball..




I like planting tulips with iris `s ,the tulips die and the iris`s come up..



I like this clematis and want to grow it all over my wall..



here is a different tulip ,looks ace....



i do hope spring has sprung where you live....

thanks for sharing, Mick!! Happy Spring 2 You!

What a beautiful sight, all those gorgous spring flowers!!!

Spring hasn't sprung here yet, but we're getting closer.

Nice photos Mick! I love the sedum stump!!

Wonderful Mick. I just love those stone planters. What happened to the semps?
Great sedum stump.
We have spring here now, but it is still raining.
