I love the sedum palmeri! It is one of my favourites. I planted three of them this year!
ReplyDeleteThey grow so well and are evergreen! What's not to love?
ReplyDeleteJeg kom bare lige forbi.
ReplyDeleteGode billeder.
Tak for kigget.
Ha` en dejlig aften.
Tak for at komme over.
DeleteJeg kiggede på din blog.
Din have er smukt
Okay fess up! What's your secret with the Sonchus canariensis? How come yours looks AMAZING while mine is bare except for the 5 or 6 tiny new leaves???
ReplyDeleteOh and you just had to show that sexy Rhodocoma capensis again didn't you???
I really don't know. You got yours about a year after I got mine from the same place. You nursed yours back to health and mine bloomed and then looked awful for a while. This year, It's not been in full sun so it hasn't bloomed but the foliage is lusher. I've never repoted mine; it's in the same plastic pot that it came in. don't remember ever fertilizing the poor thing either. I cram it into that little glass room every winter where it looses leaves, looks really sick, and I think that won't make it. Each spring when I take it back out, it revives.
DeleteDidn't you say that you were going to get a Rhodocoma capensis this year? You really should!!
DeleteOooo la la! fabulous. Love that Rhodocoma capensis. I've never heard of it before. ARe you growing that in a container or in the ground?
ReplyDeleteThanks. Rhodocoma capensis is one of the Restios from the Fynbos area of South Africa. It seems to be the hardiest one for us here in western Washington. However, in California, they grow them all! I'm growing it in a really big pot in a sheltered area and am hoping that it will make it throught the winter. I've seen huge ones in this area that have been in the ground for several years.
DeleteGreat foliage choices, Rodocoma capensis is amazing. Must look that one up.
ReplyDeleteThank you. Rhodocoma capensis is wonderful and when the dew is heavy and the sun hits it it's magical! I bet you could grow this where you are.
DeleteThat Rhodocoma capensis blew my mind! It looks like feathers. What a cool plant.
ReplyDeleteIt's a beauty! Jungle Fever has them in 4" pots, Cistus always has the 5 gallon size and sometimes Dragonfly gets a few.
DeleteWow, you have some truly great and unique (to me) foliage. The sedums, sempervivum, and rhodocoma are all fantastic.
ReplyDeleteI'm very lucky to live where all these things can be grown! Glad you enjoyed the foliage!
