Thank you all!

In case anyone is wondering, there is no Sempervivum 'jocundus'

I'm just making up a Latin creed for my noids Rolling on the floor laughing and I may have spelled it wrong

semper jocandus mean anything?
Whatever it is, interesting coloration, sort of peach-y.

jucundus, a Latin word meaning "agreeable" or "delightful," and ultimately from the Latin verb juvare, meaning "to help." But jucundus looks and sounds a bit like jocus, the Latin word for "joke."


ha, ha
so
Semper Jucundus --- Always Delightful!

good creed for noid-love me thinks
