It is fun isn't it Terri. These plants give year round interest and are so easy to fall in love with.

Oh my, look at the difference in stolon length!

I'm not sure what to think now. If I had to make a call I'd say they're different cultivars.

Any input would be most welcome! I'm all ears!

True, Greg.
I have a few NOIDs that are absolutely gorgeous! And I would never part wirh them.

I would probably feel better about it if you would share some of that no name beauty that Kevin gave you. Whistling
The watermarks are stunning! Thumbs up

If you mean A-55 for some reason mine isn't growing all that well, so I moved it today and am hoping the offsets and the hen begin to do better! The offsets were nearly dried out and looking sad = so the spot I moved them to is a little less sun! I tip my hat to you.

Hi Folks
I have come to this thread a bit late. Since the "Keston" disaster i am wanting to verify all the names of my plants and I have Proud Zelda. She is one of my favorites...a don't mess with me Mama. She has BLACK tips in full sun and very long stolons. She also is a bit fuzzy.Terri's pic looks just like mine. I have had her get over 8 in across. ... So i guess i'm ok on that one.
Thanks everyone

Good morning Jo Ann @ricos
Compare your 'Proud Zelda' against the photos in the database. This one goes through a few different stages of color. It is one of my favorites with such a beautiful soft look.

I received 5 small little ones last fall and they are still small but growing so fast and yet they have the coloration, which is one of the things I love about semps, they can have the coloration of the adult plants even when so little! Hurray!

Thank you all
My proud Zelda is correct. I would be very dissappointed if it were not. Do have some others that don't match the dats base but will deal with that later.

Don't you just love this database Jo Ann? It is so easy to research different kinds of plants.

I'm so happy with mine too! Can't believe how gorgeous she is. Lovey dubby
I expect she'll perform better with a little more room.

As far as "Zelda" is concerned, I think I'll leave her where she is for now.

Unfortunately it only takes one employee not paying attention........ Sad
Well, at least she's a pretty NOID.

Morning! So I noticed SMG still has 'Zelda'. Is it infact different from 'Proud Zelda'? I still didn't see anything online for just 'Zelda'. Here's a screenshot of SMG's.
