Bergenia and a Sempervivum

Posted by CiNdEe at 6:00 AM

Not sure which Bergenia this is but it is blooming nicely right now.

I love the winter color of this Semp. Again, not sure on its name.

Nola @ the Alamo said...: I love the plant on the bottom; I've never heard of that. I'll have to google and see what I find; I love plants with purple in them. Always wanted a purple and green flowerbed I could call my Mardi Gras bed!; February 23, 2009 at 6:15 AM

I hope they do well for you too. I have mine in a location that gets a bit of morning sun. The summer afternoon sun would fry it!

Hi Nola,
The Sempervivums are super easy to grow. They make a great plant for pots/etc. They also grow well in the ground. They don't mind the heat here in the summer so that is why I love them so much(-:; February 23, 2009 at 6:22 AM
Kerri said...: Hi Cindee, The Bergenia flower cluster is so pretty, and I love the purple shade of that lovely sempervivum.
Those are 2 plants I don't have in my garden!
We have a snowy, blustery, frigid day here in upstate NY. I'd like to be sharing your warmer CA air right now :); February 23, 2009 at 7:10 AM
Skeeter said...: Such lovely pretties. The boots below got a chuckle out of me. That would put my Saint over the edge if I did that in our garden! lol I should do it just see his reaction... tee hee. I get a kick otu of poking him at times.; February 23, 2009 at 11:25 AM
cindee said...: Hi Kerri,
It has been raining here all day. Not to cold just windy and rainy so I am stuck inside. Soon it will be Spring for all of us!!!(-:

Hi Skeeter,
OMG my husband hates working in the yard. He doesn't care what I do as long as he doesn't have to help. He will if I ask him to but he won't do anything if I don't. SO I can do anything I want. That is why I have so many weird things. He doesn't care what I do!!!(-:; February 23, 2009 at 2:26 PM

lola said...: Cindee both plants are lovely. I will have to check them out. I would like them in my garden.; February 23, 2009 at 8:40 PM
