Thanks @Springcolor - I'd love for you to come visit my semp beds when you have time!!

Great photos Greg.
What are the two chocolate colored ones in the third photo? Interesting color.
Beautiful intense color in Nightwood.

Thanks Lynn those ones are Bronco! First year of having them and they really are chocolate colored! And the chicks are the exact same color!! In front is Karo - I lost the hens of Karo last year, and when I moved the other babies, I must have forgotten these couple and they've grown in really quickly, much quicker than the ones I moved

Wonderful pics Greg! They all look amazing! My New Rhumba is barely hanging in there...I have it in bright shade and am misting it but it's still not doing very well

Patty if this is your first year with New Rhumba it takes a bit to get going. Next year it should do much better for you.

Greg, I don't think the brown semps are 'Bronco'. They are never brown. Your two brown ones look familiar for some reason. Could tags have been mixed up? Could it be Pacific Devil's Food?

Hi Lynn - thanks I'll make it a NOID (another one from Young's - I have to say I'm really disappointed in Young's I have to change the way I've rated them on here!!!) All of my NOIDs have been from Youngs and I've tried on several occasions to contact them - with no return
I now have 6 NOIDs from Young's and they haven't appologized or tried to make good on these!!! A couple of them they're still selling as the incorrect semp on their website!!
For folks who don't care what semp you are getting than Young's is great, but if you are trying to collect a specific semp - I'd say stay away from Young's!

I'm sorry Greg.
All of our photos are correct for Bronco, SMG has the correct photo, as does semper-liste.de.
The one shown on Young's site is not correct. It does look to be the same one you have in your photo. Just get in touch with Toby, be sure to give him reference sites for verifying. He is easy to work with.

Thanks Lynn!! I will send Toby another email - I've sent several...the other thing is that this semp is a really cool one, and over time I'll probably figure out what it is (since its brownish and tan throughout the year - pretty IDable,)
I will keep it as a NOID, but I like to know what it could possibly be!!)

I'll post in the chat forum what I hear back from Young's

SMG is still selling Beautiful even though I advised them it was not the correct plant per the German sites.

Patty - Oh no! I just ordered that one from them ...hmmm oh well, it will be interesting to see if it looks like what I have (I love the plant that I have but wanted to increase its size sooner than growing it out! )

I have that plant as well. I have no idea where I got it.

I got mine this spring from Perennial Obsessions but they only had a 1inch pot of it, so I'm increasing, or so I though...I won't if they look very different I'll keep them separate
Thanks for heads up Patty!

It looks like the same plant to me Patty?
These links all show the same semp. One of my favorites that I got from Perennial Obsessions years ago.

Lynn on sempervivum list (german site) they discuss 2 clones, one is like the one you are showing and the other one is totally different, this may be what Patty was referring to??

The spiraling effect is showing up in your photo of Andrenor and Hart. That's a cool effect.

Ok everyone, I am losing it, so sorry! The semp that I think SMG has mis-ID'd (??) is Beauty Spot NOT Beautiful. Lynn agreed with me on this one, whew! And I'M claiming grandbaby-itis

I was out looking at the semps tonight before cooking diner, so right they are looking beautiful. The light was just right tonight for pictures. Greg hope you don't mind, like to post a few.

First the noid bed just so they don't have hurt feeling. Look at the weeds in there. That green one is a tough one.

Funny, I seem to take pictures of the same ones over and over. I go to the database and there it is.

Julia, I love your semp bed!! Is that a colony of the same semp that's in the bed?
