Fuego is rockin' the house. Lynn's appears to be a tighter, flatter, more broad-leafed rosette. And less fuzzy than Greg's. And yet I wouldn't be surprised if they were the same plant... or different. Nothing surprises me anymore.

I like the rosette habit of Pilosum. Very flat, compact, uniform, and tight formation. Much like 'More Honey' or 'New Sunrise'. They don't need any color besides green to dazzle.
I'll ignore all the dead leaves in people's photos if they ignore all the pine needles in mine. I was pleased with this picture. That's 'Red Rum' in the foreground, not yet looking very red. The agenda for these guys in the upcoming growing season is... GROW!

Anyone else deal with pine needles? They're not harmful but an aesthetic nuisance. It's not like I planted underneath a tree. The offending Fir tree is 100 feet away and is only a problem during the occasional southwesterly winds. I wonder if I could vacuum them up without sucking up all the gravel. Confused
