« Last post by Jan Hurst-Nicholson on November 25, 2024, 05:57:12 AM »My donkey tail occasionally flowers, but never so many flowers at once as it has this time. Must have been just the right conditions.
I've never heard of this thing before, so I googled it. Here's the Wiki for anyone who's interested:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sedum_morganianum
Native to Mexico, so I guess its imported to South Africa and sold from plant nurseries. Is that correct, Jan?
We've got so many growing in our retirement village that I doubt if anyone here has actually bought one. The little beads fall off and grow very quickly when just left on the top of the soil. You can also cut off the strands and poke them into the soil and they will grow. We planted a few strands in this 'fountain' and it's now covered in them. I've got three hanging baskets in my garden.

We've had to abandon doing work on the fence until the birds have hatched and flown.
