hehehe...another person we can get addicted...

valleylynn said:Have you had a chance to check out the databases? You will find the link over on the right side of the page, up towards the top.

I did!! I went through the whole thing! (Though not each individual page). I love seeing the images from different times of year. Makes a huge difference. I did look at the pages for the cultivars I have ordered.

One thing I found interesting is that most of the database was comprised of cultivars I had not seen in my previous web searches! It's like there are a half billion sempervivum cultivars!!

This is going to be a dangerous obsession I fear....

She's hooked.
Welcome aboard Terri, we are going to have so much fun this year. I am sure between the members here in this Cubit we must have at least 300 to 400 hundred named cultivars. Not all are in the database. We just keep adding them as the photos become available. : )

OK, my SMG order came in today too.

Here is what I received from them:

Jovibarba hirta:
Astrid
f/Belansky Tatra
yellow green form

Sempervivum arachnoideum
"minor"
"Cebenese"

Sempervivum cv's
Korspel Sport
Montfort
Pacific Green Rose
Purdy's 60-2
Red Rum
Silver Queen

Sedum album "Coral Carpet"
Sedum apoleipon
Sedum dasyphyllum "Lilac Mound"
Sedum dasyphyllum suendenmanii
Sedum pallidum var. Bithynicum

Supposedly Sedum stenopetalum... but I don't think it is stenopetalum.....

And I was also ordered a "Sedum Assorted" which wasn't in the box....

the semps look really nice though.

Again with the no pics until I find some pots....

Terri... I also bought Sedum stenopetalum and it looks nothing like the pic of it. It isn't doing great and I hope it starts rooting and growing better.

What I received is NOT stenopetalum. He has written back and says he will resend the skipped order and the stenopetalum. We'll see what arrives.

Can you post a pic of what you received for the Sedum stenopetalum?

Hmmm I thought I did, wonder where I posted it...

Sorry I just posted it in the wrong nursery thread... Here it is:

Here's the plant I received as "Sedum stenopetalum".




Any ideas of what it really is?

Nope...mine looks like yours except it's a darker green. Mine is looking sad...

Here's a pic of mine.

Did you both get them from SMG?
Here is a link to a nice photo of that sedum. http://www.indoor-plant-care.c...
Just remember it might look very different once the weather changes and it starts growing. Both of you have healthy looking plants, just remember light and soil will make changes in color and leaf appearance even on some of the sedum.

I am not familiar with this sedum at all. Will be interesting to see them as they get further into spring then summer.

Good job Terri that you called about the mix up. SMG is a great company, but even they are human and can make a mistake. What makes them a really great nursery is they are so willing to repair the error. Gives me great confidence in them.

Mine came from SMG. I guess mine looks like that pic a little and mine did look like Terri's when I received it, so it has changed and is looking more like the pic.

Well mine looks like the photo in the link, but not what SMG is calling stenopetalum...

Here is the SMG site photo for stenopetalum..

Thanks for the link Lynn and I did some more searching on it. I think I know why mine isn't doing very well. We've had lots of rain and it prefers a drier soil than what it has been in. I'm going to move it to a separate pot and see how it does.

Hi everyone!
Still having trouble figuring out where to post things.
I was reading a thread somewhere about people having trouble getting to the SMG website. I could only get on a cached one, but decided to try my luck at their facebook page.
They post alot of nice pics, I found their web site hard to really check out the plants.
Glad everyone is checking in after the horrible tornado storms, I don't think I've ever felt so personally connected to weather else where in this country!

Sherri where do you live? Have I asked you that before? Sure hope you aren't in the middle or anywhere close to all the bad weather. So glad you are posting. We aren't rigid about posting but do try to post on topic to the threads. As you can see we do get off track.
Just jump in and share with us what you are doing. Ask questions if you have any, and just enjoy.

I am still able to access SMG entire web site. http://www.smgsucculents.com/ What link are you guys using?

We still haven't heard from Charleen, not even over in her cubit http://cubits.org/CharleyTheBi...

I'm here in Seattle.
Hope you hear from Charleen soon.
The link I could not access SMG from was Google, but I could get there from my bookmarked site.
My brother gave me a $15 dollar off coupon for ebay I was about to go spend at so succulents. The fame montrose is calling my name. After that I just get distractedand can't decide what else to get.
I've been trying to stick to the more local nurseries, Oregon has some great ones, and the shipping is cheaper!

Sherri before you order look at these two links.
http://cubits.org/sedumandsemp...

Thank you, I did see that, seconds before ordering too!
Read that Charleen was ok too. So glad to hear it.
I had found blomma 2 after reading the original thread, think I will try her out again.
Thanks!

I know the plants Terri got from her were nice ones. What are you looking for? Do you need named varieties of does that make any difference to you?

We just got a post from Terri, she is okay. The really bad one that hit Ringgold passed about a 1/4 mile or so from her place.

Have we heard from Tee? She's in TN.
