Wanna play? it's probably easier for you in the US.

Sort of like those that visit my garden virtually could send a stone! Want to be the first? :-)<BR/><BR/>Kim, I don't know what cultivar this sedum is. I've not yet been able to make a definitive ID. My mom gave some to me and it has done exceptionally well! It's what you see in the lower right corner of the last picture. You'll see it for yourself soon! :-)Kylee Baumlehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04288354709094515651noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3070488376505303445.post-46484692091911074932007-07-08T19:03:00.000-04:002007-07-08T19:03:00.000-04:00Oooh... yup, you definitely needed a cairn (*grin*...Oooh... yup, you definitely needed a cairn (*grin*) and it looks great, Kylee!<BR/><BR/>What kind of sedum do you have that you're pulling it out by the fistfuls?

I mentioned a few days ago that I want to build one in Brian's back yard, but I want a more rounded, zen structure like the one seen here: http://www.lawrence.edu/library/gallery/rocks/zenstackrevised_sm.jpg<BR/><BR/>The gold bug is just too mondo, as well. I so love seeing the joy you get from your garden, Kylee. :)Teehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03095992957793443709noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3070488376505303445.post-30405736731744929742007-07-08T00:13:00.000-04:002007-07-08T00:13:00.000-04:00I like the new structure.
