I did something today that was farfetched not to mention pretty goofy.
I was @ an all-day seminar @ the competition’s hospital/clinic across town.
A couple of us gals went out on the terrace/patio to enjoy the sunshine while on lunch break.
They have a nice garden w/ many varieties of plants and of course I noticed they had sedums.
Not sure what kind they were but the one that caught my eye and that I favored was a deep reddish color.
All of those poor, poor plants desperately needed watering and were so wilted; we have had no rain in a month or more.
This patio is on the 2nd floor and it’s set too high to water unless they do it w/ a very long hose, I didn’t see a faucet but there could have been one up there.
Anyhooch, on my way out I snagged one of the stems that had a nice sized bloom on it along w/ 6 lil’ bloometts.
When I got it home I cut the stem about 4-5 inches above the root, removed the bottom leaves and planted it.
Cut about 4 more inches off of the remaining stem and removed all of those leaves and shoved that into the ground.
Cut yet another piece off removed the leaves and planted that one as well.
Then I took the nice sized bloom that had the lil’ bloometts on it and snapped (pinched??) them off removed a few of the small leaves and planted the 6 lil’ bloometts buds, some in pots and some in the ground.
Then I took the bigger bloom and planted that in the ground.
*I didn’t really shove them, I gently placed them.*
Watered them all and now I will watch to see if any of them will produce anything.
Our nights are getting cooler they are in the low to mid 40s no 30’s yet so who knows.
Indeed quite the experiment of sorts that I will definitely reap benefits of IF any of them grow.
I’m going tall Sedum crazy!
