Nooooooo!!!!

that'd spoil the symmetry of the plant!

I might give it a try as a topical application, for a bite, cut, sunburn?

yes me too Lynn!!

Some of those great big semps should work very well for this.

And they often have enough leaves that you won't miss one or two!

Wonder if there is a market for them?

valleylynn said:Sorry Mick, messed up when splitting this thread. It is now split so we won't loose the topic of whether or not we should eat sempervivum.

hope your more careful splitting chicks...

Maybe I shouldn't take a knife out to the beds?

Lynn you know you take such extra good care of your babies!! (Its okay, I'll take the knife out to the beds! )

Yeah, why does every description of Sempervivum mention they were boiled and eaten, but I can't find a single article on actually doing it...

Hi Brandyn, to ATP.
Do you grow sempervivum?
I see you live in Oregon .
And not very far from me.

Brandyn,

I've never read that on a single description in europe - maybe the Americans have another liking !?

Maybe they were eaten in lean times?
I can't bring myself to even taste them, let alone eat them.

I could have used that bee sting info last week. I was mowing the lawn and was attacked by ground bees.

I have been missing for awhile and I am on the mend now.

Wow, it was that bad Cinta. Sounds like those aweful yellow jackets. They are pretty bad here this year. And they can bite and take a chunk out of you, and sting many times.

Hope you're feeling better Cinta!!

How are you doing today Cinta?
