Well it's that time of the year that some of you will start seeing your semp beds/pots/walls come out from under all that snow. Hurray! Can't wait to see photos of how all of your beds/pots/walls are doing.

Here are photos of my four beds. Left bed was planted last spring, right bed was planted in 2009.

Left bed was planted late summer/fall and right bed was planted in Oct.

You can really see the difference between planting in spring and planting in summer or fall. The upper left photo is so far ahead of the bottom to beds started in summer and fall. However the sedum in the bottom right bed are doing very well.
