I've never grown a houseleeks, but if I come across some I'm definitely going to buy them. I do have an Aloe Vera with babies.

Looks really good TT. your inspiration of mother plant centre circle surrounded by detached babies is still going strong in 2 pots now. I love sempers.

All seem to love your container Terratoonie! What is it (other than a container for baby house-leeks!)

Hi Shirl ..
The container is made of pottery ...
but no identifying labels or logos underneath ...

Perfect TT what a find ! I tried to recreate your house-leek dish outside this year with circles of different colours ,it didn't go according to plan nothing like as attractive as yours .... :o(

10 Oct, 2013

 

Thanks Amy ..
I think there was a bit of luck in the way my houseleek circle developed into such a pretty shape.

10 Oct, 2013

 

Looks like your charity shop find was made just to display these TT :o)))

Hello Tracey ..
As soon as I saw the container in the charity shop, I knew it would be right for plants :o)))

10 Oct, 2013

 

It's very chique! Modern looking and attractive. good find Terra!

10 Oct, 2013

 

Thanks Karen ...
In the charity shop, I was buying a couple of toys for my dogs' trick routines, and saw this ... a useful gardening 'extra' :o)

10 Oct, 2013

 

What a great find, TT, & what a wonderful way to use it to show off your houseleeks to perfection!

10 Oct, 2013

 

Thank you Balcony ..
I check on the babies each day to see if they've grown !

11 Oct, 2013

 

The semper I copied your idea with, flowered in the middle, and I have just noticed that since I removed the old withered middle semper, that there is a new baby in the space growing really well. How good is that.

11 Oct, 2013

 

Hi Dorjac ..
that's great :o)))

11 Oct, 2013

11 Oct, 2013

 

That's very pretty, and will look nice when the Houseleeks spread a bit :o)

Thanks Linda, Homebird and Hywel ..
The houseleek babies are very happy :o)
