      @@the.shortang214 No, the video uses autocaptions. They aren't accurate, especially for species names. Hopefully the creator updates with actual typed CC. _For Thea For Thea, craft Cilla's, BioMEMS, Seaton's, Semper V-Bums, simpler views_ and other gems probably have proper names.

Dunce Caps are just amazing ans hardy. Its end of September here and my rosettes have formed cones... Its their death blooms that havent bloomed yet. They are so so so pretty. Dragons Blood is another sedum/ground cover thats spreads far and wide,,,, just stunning. I also added Prickly Pear this year. Opunuti is what im going to look for now and the other two like hens and chicks that you mentioned. Thank you soooo much.

  • @TheCountRiggs
    @TheCountRiggs 5 років тому +3

    Wow! Thanks for all the info. I'm trying to add some around my cottage and home. I bought 2 huge ones and broke off all the small ones and made about 80 more. LOL. It was pretty great. Wife's like "WOW, you can do that!" and I fire back, "Oh yeah dear, Cassidy on UA-cam says no worries, divide away."
    I'm located in Southern Ontario and we do experience quite cold weather. I would like to find a nice variety for ground cover. I would like it small and low and super hardy. That the dogs and some people will walk on them from time to time (large patch at the cottage that I just can't get anything to grow there).Thanks so much for your help! 🤗 Your eyeballs are freaking amazing! By they way I took to gardening because the wife hasn't showed much interest in outdoor duties (We got a blue jobs/pink jobs arrangement and it works very well.🙂). I've been growing cannabis for years and quite enjoy it. I found the house and cottage seems so bland, so I've been doing my best to get into "visual" gardening. I gotta say I've been doing quite well! You're help on this topic will be my "piece de resistance" if you will. LOL. Thanks in advance for your help. Adrian.

    • @Succulentsandsunshine
      @Succulentsandsunshine  5 років тому +1

      I'm so glad were able to propagate your succulents! That's fantastic! :)
      Depending on your growing zone in Ontario, you should be able to grow cold-hardy Sedums and Sempervivums well. Something like Sedum nevii would be a good ground cover.

      Good luck in your succulent gardening adventures!
