Golden Sedum: Sedum kamschatium

I ordered golden sedum for the garden. It's bright yellow color and tolerance for heat should make it a great addition. The south-facing area next to the garage gets direct sun all day and the reflection off the white aluminum siding makes it even tougher for the plants. Right now, there are only the bearded iris that were planted 40 years ago and the shasta daisies I put in this year. Before I can worry about the heat, I have to hope that any of the six plants survive the winter.

In the same order, I received a dozen dutch iris, several varieties of regular iris, and three white liatris to complement the purple ones I already have.

In a separate order from Breck's, I received my "super sak" (50) of daffodils, a super sak (80) of grape hyacinths, and 20 additional grape hyacinths of varying colors.

Slowly but surely, the garden is shaping up nicely.
