| Well here we are starting a new year. So much to learn, new sedum to try, and new ways to use the much loved sedum. I also want to show a new sedum x orostachys that will be on the market for the first time this year. For me it is a must have. I never thought about using sedum in food preparation, here is a link to the Food Network show called Chopped. In the second round (entree round) one of the ingredients is Sedum 'Pink Pearl'. To me it looks similar to Tri-Color sedum. Can anyone find this sedum? http://www.foodnetwork.com/sho... Let the fun of this coming new year begin.  |

Some of them grow so well that we could have our sedum and eat them too.  |

| I'm not sure, but I think Cynda (Perennial Obsessions) will have them sometime this spring. I want to see a bloom up very close, to see which parent it looks the most like. |

| Done, in the data base. I sit inside thinking no color out in the yard. Then do a walk around and a spot this. Better than any bloom. Sempervivum for Sale |

| What a wonderful gift of color to find. I noticed that most of my deciduous sedum have new growth poking through the soil. |

| Yes, they do. Love that stage. I tried to pull a few weeds while out looking over the yard but the ground is still frozen. First day of spring is March 20th!!!!!!! Be here before you know it!!! Sempervivum for Sale |
Name: Lynn Dallas, OR (Zone 8b) |
| It has warmed up here and the ground it thawed out. Think I might be able to work out in the beds as long as I don't disturb the plants. There are a few winter weeds coming up. I might have to wait until tomorrow, as it is suppose to rain all day today. |

 Happy New Year to all sedum friends.  While searching for Pink Pearl sedum, I found these two sites, I am finding a lot of interesting reading there. www.chefs-garden.com list Pink Pearl as edibles for sale. Hummm wonder if I order Pink Pearl I could root it? Will check it out later. |

| Happy New Year to you Linda. It is raining here and in the low 40's. I went out and took a few photos. Not a lot to see right now. Blue Pearl  Hylotelephium cauticola 'Purpurine'  Elsie's Gold  Hot Stuff  Plum Perfection  There a quite a few that are not showing any new growth yet. Probably not until the end of Feb or first part of March. Linda, I deleted your first link to succulents.com. It has been highjacked. See if this one works. http://www.succulent-plant.com... |
