I see from photos in the database that some of you grow the Sunsparkler series sedums. How are they doing for you? Do you have photos of mature plants in bloom? I found the collection of 12, 3 of each of the 4 for $69.95. That's about $5.81 a plant. I really only need one of each to get me started. Would anyone be interested in buying some of the extras or trading me some other hardy sedums? I haven't ordered yet, but am thinking about it. Have you ordered from this place?

I have three of them, but not the Blue Pearl. They're doing well here. I got them last fall and they were quite small. I'll see if I can get some updated pictures for you. I still have them in containers but plant to plant in the garden if I ever get time.

Finally....got some pictures. They aren't really flowering yet, mostly just buds, but here they are. They're a bit gangly - probably should've pinched them back.

Thanks for the photos. They are all nice. I'll pinch mine back next year.

I've been working on cleaning out one of the borders in my back yard and plan to put all my sedum in there. It's a slow process though, but ultimately, yes I hope they get them in the ground this summer yet.

Chris, you sing out loud, like when you are in bear country, maybe carry a tin can and stick with you that you can bang on once in awhile. That way they keep their distance. Besides night time is cool time. Green Grin!

Rolling on the floor laughing Rolling on the floor laughing Let's see - I'll be running around outside with flood lights on, banging on pots, at 2:00 AM. Hmmmm....I don't think any of the dogs in the neighborhood would bark, do you? I know the neighbors already think I'm a bit crazy, but this will have them calling for help! Hilarious! Hilarious!

Chris, you should not risk any skunking events. Just put them in the mail and I will plant them for you. Whistling


Susan I do not have Lime Zinger. I purchased them this Spring/Summer from my local Nursery I did not know they were a new series. If they survive the winter next summer I should be able to share them.
