Sedum Spectabile

A friend wants to see what I have in my garden that is giving it some colour at this time of year. So here goes… #floweringinoctober

Love the colour!

I suppose if the daffodils are in flower it’s probably time to cut back the #hylotelephium-spectabile 🙄 (That doesn’t exactly slip off the tongue does it?!)

😆

I'm afraid mine will always be a Sedum!!😂

😂😂👍🏻

Mine too👍😆 @hebelover

Mine too! @hebelover @ublaszko @cee

I cut back my Sedum this week Jacqueline, I’ll never call them by that other name it’s too complicated to say, let alone remember 🤣

I had to Google it 🙄😂 @sieveheadsarah

I havent been cutting anything back until I see new growth, that way I know where things are!

Me three!

Good plan Leslie 👍 @lesliecole49

I’ve just done mine, too 👍😘

18 Sep 2019 • Just two of so many bees on this #hylotelephiumspectabile that it was almost moving 🐝 🐝 🐝 #beefriendly #wildlifewednesday

👍🏼👍🏼 Invaluable at this time of year for the buzzies! (Even horizontal ones like mine! 🙈)

They really love them, mine is the same 🐝🐝🐝

To them it’s just like a wooly carpet...💗🐝

Mine are too. Much worse than usual too 🤷‍♀️ Hence the close-up!! @rachelbrooks

It’s great to see isn’t it Jane @pelly

Mmm! 😋 That they can eat from too 😂 @wagsmomthompsonbtinternetcom

Are you somewhere on your bike Jacqueline 🤔🚲😀

Hi Sarah! No, sadly not (though I will be for a few days from tomorrow). I’m currently sat in the car in Morrison’s car park! We have a rubbish mobile signal at home and a week ago some (expletive deleted) crashed into and set fire to the telegraph pole that carries our landline and internet 😡 Will get back on GT when BT-dont-reach-very-far get their act together @sieveheadsarah

Oh no, that's not good Jacqueline, fingers crossed it doesn't take them too long to get it sorted!! Enjoy your few days on two wheels, fingers crossed its not persisting down where you're going!!!

It did persist down but I had great company and we got a warm welcome at our destination (and WiFi!!) last night @sieveheadsarah

Glad you had a good time, shame about the rain 💦💦

28 February 2018 • Some colour in an otherwise black and white world. Hope you’re all tucked up safe and sound 🤞

That’s a real stand out Jacqueline, great colour. 🧡🧡

Thanks Jane. I almost chopped it off the other day but got distracted 😂 Glad I didn’t now 😊 @pelly

Thank goodness for your distraction!! 😂😂

😂😂 Hopefully left the buds with a bit of protection. How are you this morning. In need of protection or bearing up? @pelly

Going stir crazy Jacqueline!! How about you? @awomanonabike 😱😱

And so beautifully illuminated 👌🏼

I walked to town the last two days - partly to deal with just that feeling Jane @pelly

Nature does it so well Rachel ☀️👍 @rachelbrooks

Brr, but I bet you felt better for it. ☃️☃️

I did! Wednesday was beautiful - fresh snow, blue skies, sunshine. Yesterday was arctic. So dark and howling winds but still worth it ❄️❄️❄️ @pelly

Wednesday yes, Thursday........... no @awomanonabike 😂😂

Yes! There is a bit of pink. There is!

One of my favourites at this time of year 👏👏😊💕

Me too... It's a long time coming though, but it's almost there!
