I love hypertufa pots. Needed pots for my sedums and semps so I jumped in and went crazy. I made some containers from concrete back in the 90's. Still doing well but heavy. Found recipe for hypertufa online.

Thumb of 2014-03-18/chickhill/f68853little missy, brought her in for the winter, glad I did the other pot looks dead, don't know if it will come back out. The pot beside it is what I call her sister-leaves are solid green. I bought both those plants in Townsend, Tn. Little Missy was labeled but the other one was not.


tricolor in first concrete pot, next bowl-pot is the green stems of tricolor that I pull out so it won't revert


Thumb of 2014-03-18/chickhill/39d3ce green shoots of tricolor. By the way this always stays green it never tries to go back to tricolor
