#sedummiddendorfianum

TBH I was a tiny bit nervous even though my bee venom #immunotherapy was successful. But she had gotten too chilled to fly and was in a place where she might be stepped on. I placed her on the #sedummiddendorfianum. #worldbeeday2018 #savethebees #abeilles #abejas #bees #bienen #μέλισσες #beekeeping #backyardbees #allergictobeestings not any more!

The red flower stems of Chinese Mountain Stonecrop are what make it work so well with Rock Soapwort (AKA #mediterraneanpinks), despite its bright yellow flowers. Like many #succulents, you can propagate from root-y stems. I usually find them wedging their way between the boulders that form the edge of my dry river bed. After 8 years #inmygarden, I got my first volunteer #fromseed last summer. I let it overwinter and will be moving it now that’s it proven to be a survivor. (Ha ha, I sound like a crazy #beekeeper.) A slow spreading evergreen ground cover, I wonder how long it’ll take for it, no wider than my hand, to reach it’s full width of 2 feet. #coloradogardener #nowaterzone #xeriscapegarden #droughttolerant #xeric #evergreen #groundcover #sedum #inmygarden #Sedummiddendorfianum #morebeesplease
