Bev, I have so many that I prefer to keep the space for named ones only. I do have one exception to the rule. This one stays tiny and dark red throughout the entire year. I just can't bring myself to part with it. It was one of my original semps from SMG many years ago, but I lost the tag.

Now I'm curious to see that one. Even though unidentified, you must have some sort of indication that tells you this is a truly loved one like a label or sign that says: DONT THROW THIS OUT!! (penalty enforced)?

I'll go out and take a photo of the wee one.

Can't wait! I have one like that, its from MountainCrestgardens and it was labelled Pacific devil's food, but its not that...I keep it anyway because well for one, I love my NOIDs (huh Bev!) and 2 its so colorful, and smallish (2inches max)
I've taken to labelling my NOIDs fav#1, fav#2 Bev#1 Patty#1 etc...so that I can at least know where I have them to share with all the NOID fans!
haha

How precious is that?
I think I am going to take a stroll down memory lane and view the threads: NOIDs for 2013 and Top 5 Semps for 2013 again...

I wish I was at home so I could run out and take update photos!

YES! Hop on that bike, Cassidy!!

I'm never gonna stop the rain by complaining because I'm freeeee... you mean that cassidy? Tried it plenty of times, not that fun getting soaked on a bike, even if I do hum that tune!

Hop-Along-Cassidy...

oh Not butch Cassidy and the sundance kid huh?? Oh well!

NO, further back in the timeline than that...Hopalong Cassidy, made for television western hero originally from the 1940's, short stories and films.

Yep! Still prefer Paul Newman and Robert Redford!

Wanted to update anyone who reads this thread, I noticed that Young's changed their website to make their "Oh My" a NOID red semp. I'm very glad they did this! It makes me feel much more comfortable shopping with them again, knowing that they are concerned with the correct IDing of their plants!!
Thanks Young's!

Hi Greg,

that's a really good news - I know a lot of nurseries who won't care about our messages.... :-(

I agree Peter!

Youngs works hard at keeping on top of things. It can happen to any of us, difference between a good nursery and a bad one is what they do with the information they are given.
I never hesitate to buy from Youngs, love them.

I agree 100% Lynn!! And actually I like this "Marked Red" semp - it has thinner leaves and watermarks and deep reddish tones! Even getting purplish in late spring!! And - I'm very happy that they are selling it and indicating that it is a NOID!
