Wonderful container of healthy looking sedum Flimsy. We are so happy you found us. All of us love to share our different experiences in growing sedum and semps. BlueFox's advice is what I do here at my place.
I too have the purple form of S. hispanicum. It is such a sweet little plant. Twit made a great suggestion on another thread here that I know BlueFox does also. Plant it in several places in differing conditions, then observe which does best in your part of the country. I know that this plant can have winter die back (dormant) in some areas, but should come back if drainage is good. For me I have found that it needs some protection for our hot, dry summer weather, so I give it bright light, but not direct sun. Here is a picture of my S. hispanicum 'Blue Carpet'. I can't seem to find a picture of my 'Purple Form'. Hmmmm Confused
