    :D I like the tought of growing sempervivums in pots, Barb.

    Actually I think the greyish, big ones are Echeveria, not sempervivums, and we can't grow those outside here. I have tried. :D So if I ever get round to making anything I'll have to find something else for greyish.

    That looks like an amazing place that I'd love to see. I'm imagining the eforts that went into each display... pretty special. I kind of like the snake and the dinosaur -- pretty happy looking fellers.

    If I were to create a sculpture in my yard, I think I would make.... a hen, and a chick! (hee hee)

    Goodness FF, I would hate being in charge of anything. I'm way too unstructured. :D But thank you for the vote of trust, and thanks a lot for the compliments on the photos.

    :D My thoughts exactly.

    I have some of the greyish ones, but they grow so slow it would take me serveral years to get any babies.

    Sing to them, Barb. Maybe they'll hurry up.
