Title: New member making his first rock garden
Post by: Maggi Young on September 29, 2018, 06:32:43 PM: Neil Dunsmore in Scotland is a new SRGC member who is beginning his first rock garden - this is his phot, reposted here from the SRGC Facebook page ...
Neil says : "I've just joined....my 1st attempt. I'm sure it'll evolve a bit more, but I've also got a Belfast sink and a raised corner bed....any opinions or advice welcomed."

Post by: Maggi Young on October 01, 2018, 04:48:21 PM: Yay! Success! Your mystery plant looks like a double flowered Kalanchoe to me - in which case it is not likely to survive outside in a Scottish winter. On the other hand - if you take it in as a house plant- it'll probably flower all winter too.
