I have lots of sempervivums to trade and a few sedums. Some are named and some aren't. Is that ok? It will take me a little while to research some of your plants that I might be interested in. It would speed it up a bit if you could tell me which sedums on your list are low growing. Do you have any Ice plant or Moulin Rouge Arantia? I don't do a lot of trading but I think I have a rating or 2 on the rate and review forum. How many semps do you need? Looking forward to a large trade.

I have masses of a particular cultivar of Moss Rose(Portulaca grandiflora). If I am not mistaken, I see Portulaca in the mosaic picture you mention (http://ny-image1.etsy.com/il_570xN.239017513.jpg). The kind I have is unusual, or seems so to me, because the blooms are only maybe 1/2", and not the 1"-2" blooms I see in pictures of other cultivars on the Internet. The color of the blooms is a sort of bright yellow-green, which reminds me very much of blooming Mustard in my vegetable garden. Anyway, what I have started out in a tiny pot on my mother's front porch some 25 years ago. Somehow the plastic pot was moved to the ground, and the pot, deteriorated by the sun, cracked and started to fall apart. After that, the little roses started to slowly spread. I use it as a ground cover now under some of my individual, specimen trees, like my Paulownia Royal Empress. I also have it in pots here and there around the garden, and it has begun to spread out into the loose gravel in my driveway! Propigating this cultivar of Portulaca is so easy! It's very shallow rooted, and comes up with just a slight tug. You can almost dislodge a few sprigs by breathing on it a little too hard...which is one reason it spreads so easy! All it has to do is touch the ground, and it's off again! Whenever I want a new start of it, I'll pull a few sprigs out here and there, and just throw a little soil on top of it in it's new location. In just a couple weeks it's sending up new shoots, and in a month it's filled out, and looking very pretty again. And when it spreads out a little too much, as in the case of my driveway, a few swipes of the lawn rake is all it takes to pull it back into submission. Another thing that is unusual about these little roses, they don't die out like the annuals they are supposed to be. All descriptions I've read on the Internet say the Moss Rose is supposed to be an annual, that dies out in winter, and readily comes back from seed the following spring. But mine doesn't die completely, the new growth dies back, and I'm left with a solid matt of old growth that is a darker green. It lasts all winter, until the spring, and in February/March it's up and going again with the Daffodils. I live in zone 7b, and it rarely gets much colder than the upper teens, but we did have some snow twice this last year, and it didn't make any difference to the little roses. Please let me know if you think this will meet your needs, and good luck with your project!

These are very easy plants to deal with. Just pop the rosettes into standard potting compost and they will root very easily. These plants do benefit from soil that has reasonably good drainage. Being succulent plants sempervivums have the ability to store water in their leaves to help them over dry periods so don't be too generous when watering. I hope they do well.

I ahve quite a few different hen & chicks I could trade, Im always looking for more, I have several containers to fill with them. My trade list is not up to date on here, I just have not had the time to take care of that yet. I also have cactus to trade.
