If you should happen to have a lot of them and are stuck for ideas I'll be happy to supply you with some photos for your enjoyment and hopefully inspiration.

Well, not me! But I still enjoy looking.
Gosh can you imagine the hours and hours of work that went into those creations? I love the landscape, bridge, car and rattlesnake most of all. How I'd love to be talented enough to create works of art like those.
WOW, who knew you could do all that with Hens & Chicks. *sigh* Now I'm going to have to go buy hundreds of different ones and let my creativity flow.
Pretty remarkable stuff, Droopy. It's like..."1000+1 Things to Do With Sempervivum", isn't it? Just remarkable...that's all I can say. You guys must have really enjoyed that place alot.
Jesperhus is a very enjoyable place. I'd love to make something nice with sempervivums, but it would have to be very small in order to fit in here. And now I'm of course looking forward to seeing what sort of creations my fellow Stewbies can come up with.
I just keep going back and rolling through these time and time again. The displays are just so amazing. I would have really liked seeing this place.
I loved the duckies the best. They are all so neat. I can't imagine the time that has been put into those. Amazing!
I just loved seeing these pics! What fun that must have been to visit! Think of all the imaginative work that created them!
Wow....those are all so beautiful and different from anything I have seen done with the plants...thank you for sharing with us..
You're all very welcome, and thanks for liking my photos. There will be more sempervivum-art for you when I get round to H. C. Andersen and his fairy tales.
I've been so crazy about semps this last year. WOW! Those are all so spectacular. I don't think I am capable of keeping even one of the smallest ones in the order manner those were done. They certainly have it figured out.
