Comments (0)Houston/Gulf Coast area swap in the Fall 2015. October 10th in the Mercer Arboretum area. We have been having this swap for over 17 years. Great group.... if you would like to swap plants, seeds, cuttings or just visit with other gardeners from the area, please post here and go to out website or FB group - plantmeet Plantmeet.com...See MoreTrade list / wish list/ giveaway list, for Raleigh fall swap 2015,
Comments (265)Karen Hause, have you seen the flowers of this sedum? If so what color are they? We don't have a fully authoritative answer but have some strong leads regarding its identity. We'll write more about this, but the flower color would provide additional clarification. Incidentally, side-by-side comparison makes us more convinced that your blue sedum is S. hispanicum not 'Blue Spruce'. We'll write more about this, too....See More**** Fall 2015 East Tennessee Plant Swap ****

Comments (13)I'll attach a photo of it in my ornamental grass/sedum bed. For me, it isn't hard to contain; it throws out runners that can come up at some distance (6-12 in.) from the main plant, but I just pull them out. Otherwise, it stays in a sprawly looking clump. I've had it where it is for about 8 years so that will give you some idea (though I do pull a few runners each year). It gets to about half the height of the 'Morning Light' and the 'Karl Forster' in that bed (you'll see them too in the photo). It's not as high as Northern Oat Grass, either. It certainly does resemble the Blue Lyme except that I cannot ever recall seeing spikes (plumes) of any size on it. I'm going to watch it more carefully this summer but nothing visible yet in the way of a plume... I'll attach a couple of photos of it from today. I've had no trouble containing it but if you're worried, maybe keep it potted for this year? See what it does? Sorry I can't help more! I remember grabbing it from the swap table because it was such a gorgeous color and I was just starting this bed, never having done grasses before....See Morecatbird
