If anyone has Sedum Album ‘Murale’ or any other kind, I’d LOVE to get a few sprigs off of you. I’ve got some Sedum Floriferum, Sedum Telephium ‘Autumn Joy’ and some Sedum x Emperor’s Wave that I’m sure I can split and mail out without issue.
Some photos may be repeats but hope you enjoy. http://dahlitsa2.blogspot.com/
