Hi all!
I'm so excited to be gardening this year as we moved from an apartment to a rental house. It is on a big lot for Victoria but has been neglected completely for many years, Now that we have carved out a veggie garden in the back I can start working on semp beds :)
I'm posting today mostly to share a recent joy, I joined the cactus and succulent society last month and just went to a lovely open garden. The owner had so many different kinds of sedum, sempervivum, and other lovely plants. He also had a generous free table stacked with 'Big Blue' semps which he offered me a tray full of! I only have a handful of varieties right now (no big blue) and most of them are tiny babies so these are a huge addition to my garden in terms of numbers as well. And as I am a recent university graduate working on my own company and living on scraps I could never have bought so many!
(some of them are even flowering!)

My first project is the rubble wall I built along the fence. This is technically our driveway and I think it might be paved way down there but it is covered in so many layers of large rocks and sand.
(The wall. Seems to get around 4 hours of direct sun a day this time of year but bright all day)
It is going to take time to fill in and flush out and I'm not done extending and fattening the wall either but it will be nice to look at from the kitchen window when I'm done
If anyone has any tips on varieties that would thrive and proliferate quick there so i can move babies around I'd sure appreciate them!
