Tulips lovers? Please help I.D.?
Comments (12)I am in Central Massachusetts. My Mom got them for me 2000? Or around that time as an Easter gift. She got them from either a grocery store or Walmart. I don't remember. They all have bloomed for several years & I have also shared with friends. There is a mixture of yellow in there also. I get many tulips from this every year. I just love the colors & would like to know the correct name....See MoreOne Sedum and one mystery plant. ID help please.
Comments (8)I agree with Nhbabs. The Verbena boniarensis will occasionally overwinter for me, but reseeds with abandon. A friend who lives close by me has the Verbena planted against her house and beside her cement drive and it returns reliably in that warm, protected spot. It is a great favorite of many nectaring insects and hummingbirds. Martha...See Moreneed ID help from Kalanchoe lovers
Comments (10)I have all of those Jeff the one with the pink flowers big light green leaves I never knew it's name. It's never fowered for me yet, I have had it for years, ex Rogers Weld he forgot the name also. Gastonis-Boneri has brown blotches on the pointed leaf, and offsets form at the tips, and a thin like wire that hangs down. Makes a great hanging basket plant. I have another green Kalanchoe with plantlets forming along the sides, light apple green, no name I think it must be a very old hybrid or species as I had this as a child hanging on the curtain in the living room. K synsepala is also light green witn runners that from plantlets at the tips. Red trimmed. and many forms,no plantlets form on the leaves. this comes from Madagascar. An more clues as to what this looks like, I have a small collecrion of Kalanchnoe. How about a measurment of the leaves,...See MoreAny Sedum Lovers out there?
Comments (19)Stacey, are they the little "heads" just barely poking out of the ground? If so, this is normal. Many perennials will sit just at the soil surface waiting for the warmth and longer periods of sunlight. You will be tempted to cover them up, but don't...they know what they are doing. Sedums are one of the toughest plants to kill. Too much moisture will do them in, but otherwise they are extremely hardy. My dogs have torn one of my NOID's out of the ground a few times...had gotten some stems from a house we are demolishing and layed them under the mulch. I kept putting them back...they are trying to grow...hope they make it. The majority of sedums will form a complete new mature plant within two growing seasons from one single cutting, or sometimes one leaf....See Morejosephines167 z5 ON Canada
