I *have* to get some of that Cape Blanco. Maybe maybe maybe it'll last in the desert... I'm hearing from some Phx dwellers that I can pretty much hang it up on the semps.
In the end, only kindness matters.

Science is not the answer, it is the question.

And I got my amazing plants from Tess. Hurray!
I just got home so will take photos tomorrow. What sweet things they are. Lovey dubby

Sheryl, I don't thing the ones like Cape Blanco would do well in Phoenix, AZ? They are a Pacific Northwest sedum.
But there are many that would do very well for your. What is your growing zone?

It will be 9 - a or b, depending on who you talk to. And of course, the complete lack of humidity makes some things that would normally be fine in 9 just dry up and blow away....

Yeah, I got that answer on GW from some Phx natives, too .... semps and sedums just don't make it in the desert, wah!

I guess in some odd way, though it may have fallen on the mini-cymbidium, it could easily have been tossed over the other way and would have landed on the water fountain.

And now the weather has calmed down a lot, though chilly again...hmm...

tarev how did you get the pictures in the configuration of the four in a rectangular formation?

I don't have a lot to trade yet, however I'm working on this. Most of what I'm doing right is rebuilding my jungle of plants. I have some succulents and now have to wait until they get bigger and start producing babies or learn how to propagate them.

When you add 4 images, you can delete the space between two of them (or even three) to make them side by side. As tarev said, preview how they look and you can move what you type along with the images to set them up how you want.

Tarev, I finally took photos of the awesome succulents you sent me. Hurray!

I placed them out in the great outdoors 2 days ago, now that our weather is staying above the 40° F mark. : )
So far so good. I love them to bits.
Thank you so much tarev. Group hug
