Re: Attention!! HALF OFF sale at Bluestone Perennials
Wow you got a lot of stuff! Have you ordered from there before? I bought 2 types of astilbes & oxalis.
they were really small & neither really did anything , but he astilbes are coming back this year, so I have hope.
I didn't really like the oxalis, so we moved it to a less noticable location & the landscapers trampled it or blew it away with th leaf blower or something, b/c Sunday I noticed it was coming in better this yeae & Tuesday, after they came it wasn't there at all.

 O M G, you bought soooooo much. Good for you. I'm sure DH is happy because you just spent half of what you would have at a nursery.  Good for you.
But I'm  over everything you bought. Just beautiful!
I might get these. I have to check them out online and see where I can put them in our new garden bed.
ETA: I can't find this one on the site, can you direct me to it please. Thanks.

Yes, I have ordered from them before. Once I read the description of what their terminology said, I knew not to expect 5 gallon pots. If the plants are small, they will bunch them a lot of times, so instead of just one pot you get a group of 3.
Some of them I upped the number to 2 or 3 depending on what it was and if I wanted to bunch them together.
The thing I like about them is that you are most likely not going to find most of this stuff in a nursery.

I think they might be sold out of the first one. I know it's called Sedum Red Carpet but nothing comes up in a search for it. I actually have the link but even though it still says "special", the price is no longer 50% off. However, Sempervivum Twilight Blues still looks available. Here are the links:
http://www.bluestoneperennials.com/b/bp/SERES.html
http://www.bluestoneperennials.com/b/bp/SETBS.html
They're succulents, so they like hot, dry, well drained sites. These are the types I'm putting next to my driveway and mulching with sand and rocks, I think.

If you right click on the pic and look at the URL you will see the name of the plants if you are interested.

Re: Attention!! HALF OFF sale at Bluestone Perennials
I don't know why, but I always think that succulents look more "at home" in pots. I used to have a metal bucket like that Jen. The only problem I found was that there was no drainage and it would get boggy.
I haven't received any notification that any of my stuff wasn't in stock... Keeping my fingers crossed for both of us!
I have to start planning my attack. I guess I should first figure our how much of this stuff is rabbit resistant - that goes in the front yard. Any other yummy snacks go in the back!
