First is the 'Dazzleberry' sedum. This has spread decently, and the color is rich and vibrant.
This is the sedum from Betty, which I think might be S. seiboldi 'October Daphne.' Much brighter than 3 weeks ago when I showed you.
This is the tall sedum from Margaret. It's not yet in full bloom, but it's going to have pale lavender flowers. I think this is the only flower I have with this color, especially at this time of year. It's probably some variety of Hylotelephium spectabile. (Formerly a sedum)
Here is the CoralJade sedum. This feels like a magical find to me. I stumbled on one plant at one nursery. I'd never heard of it, but it does a lovely job of filling the space. I think some of the flowers are past prime, but I like how it always seems to have a variety of soft, dusty colors going at the same time. The foliage is that way too.
This is one that Betsy gave me last year. I'm pretty sure it's a hybrid called 'Thundercloud.' Just starting to bloom. I have it in two locations.
I couldn't just call this a sedum update because one thing to show you is the 'Ocean Sunset' Ice Plant. The other one is healthy, but it seems to be done blooming for the year. This one is still going strong.
One more little treat. A happy bumble bee with its pollen baskets filled to the brim! I'm happy to make them happy too.
In other news: I worked on Long Distance Hiker records, some of my own record keeping- including plants, worked in the front garden some more (almost all cleaned up), and took a 3.7 mile walk around Scottville.
Miles hiked in 2024: 388.4

They all look wonderful. Your rock garden is doing so well.
Ann- I'm fairly astonished! It is.
Charlee: "Wow, that bee sure is loaded all right. Its pantaloons are even poofier than Lulu's, and that's saying something."
Lulu: "Thanks. I think."
Charlee- yes, but does Lulu have yellow pantaloons?
