Hi Mark, good to see you again!

Nice Greg! Those are lots of cute babies. So, keeping every bit of space full of sempervivum? Sounds perfectly normal to me!

Hi Mark. Good to know that all those pots and plugs are being protected. Snow is very good for our hardy succulents.

Awesome new planting Greg. Hurray!
Come late spring/early summer and that bed will be full. Smiling

We have snow, finally. Hurray!

webesemps said:@CDsSister, what are your winter hobbies when gardening is impossible? or do you do indoor gardening too?
Right now my kindle is my best friend and when I can get myself into the living room with the easy chair and good lighting, I might pick up my needlepoint of a picture of a bunch of geraniums...Of course typing on ATP is a good winter hobby too... Big Grin


Bev, No indoor gardening, not enough light. I do the Kindle thing, but my primary snow day occupation is Genealogy, with a capital G.... I am researching and creating profiles of several of my family lines, including doing DNA profiles. I also do the Kindle thing, love mysteries. I don't do any craft or handwork... no good eye hand coordination. I check in and out and lurk on the different ATP forums just to keep up. This week I am also taking some online courses (genealogy again) and sorting some of Computer files and address books, etc. Also check in to FB to see if the kids (nieces ,nephews and cousins mostly) have added any family pictures I can add to my archives. That's about all, but the times flies and I have to remind myself to get up and move a bit. Hilarious!
I also do a bit of Bible studies, which should be my priority. Angel

I really need the weather to moderate so I can get my vitamin D via Mother Nature. Hurray!

Marilyn, I guess I should put together a neighborhood walking tour for semps in Seattle nodding isn't that a good idea!
I love mysteries but tend to watch them on Netflix rather than read nodding We are supposed to be getting some light fluffy stuff this evening...I'm house sitting and open the freezer - hmmm coffee ice cream, I'll just have one scoop...10 mins later - where the heck did that pint of ice cream go!! haha now I have to go to the store to replace this pint AND get me some more Rolling on the floor laughing Rolling on the floor laughing Can't help it. Love ice cream and chocolate! Rolling on the floor laughing and semps! Lovey dubby

Isn't this pretty late for snow for you Lynn and Greg?

Calin, your babies are looking good too. Is the hypertufa holding up well? I didn't realize your apartment was quite that high up!

Hi Laslo;

what a cool plant on the third photo - is that a known mutation or a new one?

I think Calin is in denial. Whistling
Calin, that is going to be a lot of semp seedlings. Can't wait to see them when they germinate. Hurray!
What is the other plant in the third photo?
Love the few from the balcony window. Lovey dubby

Great photos Laszlo. Love the S. 'Fame Monstose'. I have that one, but it keeps reverting back to the original form of S. 'Fame'.
All of your semps look like they came through winter in great shape.
