I picked this up at my local nursery last week. They are very good at having the name of their succulents. Some one had removed the tag and they did not know have a name and was not sure if it was one of their hardy or tender sucs.

So I did as I usually do work the deal. They had it for 7.00 and gave it to me for a dollar.

What do you think hardy or tender. Do you have a name quess? It was with the hardy. It gives me the feeling of tender but it was with their hardy sucs. I will post it with the tender and see if anyone recognize there too.

It looks to be a hardy sedum. Lets see what the blooms look like when it blooms. Almost looks like one of the S. spanthulifolium.

I looked at a couple S. spathulifolium a few minutes ago. I have been without power since I lasted posted yesterday except for a few hours late last nit then they were back out before sunrise.. We had severe storms. I had a lot of trees down I had to get up today.

Anywhooo....The pics look like Cape Blanco’ but I have had Blanco and it does not look the same. I will see if it blooms this Fall. Thank you all for your help you are the best.

I am trying to do somethings that need electricity in case they go out again. The weather is calling for a return to the same as yesterday.

I am back. I had to go out of town because of a death in the family. I came home and the grass was so High I got out the mower and off I went. I have one large limb I have to get the chain saw out and cut up. I mowed around the thing. It is 90 degrees out there and it is to stinking hot to go out there cutting up trees.

Here is my baby that guided me around the tree, Rolling on the floor laughing

Thank you Lynn. I know I am in love with her too. Hilarious! It must be a turn on because when I mow the lawn all the men come out and watch me. Only one of my neighbors do their own lawn. I tried the lawn service but they were not dependable and when I want my lawn done I want it done now. I got tired of waiting for them to show up. My grass was high for 3 days a couple of times and I said "That is it I am getting a mower and do it myself".

When the dog starts to look at you like you are not a good home owner you know it is time to do something.

I tried a push mower and I thought I was going to have to be hospitalized. Trying to mow 3 acres was harder than I thought. I thought how hard is it to walk around the yard with a mower. I walk around and garden the entire yard I did not think it would be any different just pushing a mower. Well I found out quick just how wrong I was.
