blooming friday - sedum spectabilis


one of my many favorites is the Sedum Specatabilis.
I love waiting for it's minute flowers turning to pink.
then the whole plant turns red and brown, drying up completaly.
I think it looks very nice against my stonewall :)


it is a very easy growing plant, just take one small leaf and put it
in the ground...
and it will give you a new plant in no time.
it likes sunny places, poor soil and little water.
what else can you ask of a plant.

the sun is going down on this beautiful place that is the Garda Lake.
yesterday I had a huge group of german students doing a trekking on the
MOnte Baldo.
the weather up there was terrible...10°C, foggy and windy.
but when we came down...the sunset over Malcesine...was spectacular...

this was the group

Monte Baldo och Malcesine - där har jag ju varit! För massor av år sedan var vi där och åkt skidor! Bor du där - lyckost!
Trevlig helg!
PS Sedum spectabilis är verkligen härliga plantor - rotar sig bra i vatten också.
