May I suggest that you have a look at membership of the Sedum Society. We run a superb Plant exchange including many of the things you offer and want.

Best of luck finding plants by the way.

Thank you for the idea, I will try it. Although I would be happy if I could find somebody here too.

Do you have this one? Sedum brevifolium.

Hello,
I had it earlier but it disappeared. Would you like swap some shoots? What can I offer for it? Something from the list above, or some other alpine/rock garden plants.
Thank you in advance.

Paul

I am in for swapping. I can send you some shoots but have to wait as the plant is growing at my summerhouse and I'm not visiting till mid June.
My plant is from Spain but have been hardy here for many years. I collected shoots in May 1972! It grows best without soil in a crack or anything like that.

Very attractive plant, Michael. Do you swap ;D

I am afraid it is Monocarpic but it sets lots of seed and germinates easily, can collect some for you if you want.

Does the Sedum Society ( I almost abbreviated to SS!) also offer  a seed list? Esp looking for Orostachys which seem devilishly hard to find apart from one or two...

Yes, the Sedum Society has a seed list covering Aeonium, Aichryson, Hylotelephium, Petrosedum, Rhodiola, Rosularia, Orostachys, Sedum, Tacitus and in the latest list we also included Primula scotica!

The cuttings exchange is excellent

I saw this Sedum yesterday in a garden, the owner said she had had no success in propagating it, either from seed or cutting material.  I have found the seed on the net - Sedum pulchellum 'Seastars' any advice please to ensure success?

Stem cuttings should be successful in usual well drained mix. I can't see it being a problem, the plant is, I think, known in the United States as Widow's Cross.

Thanks Frazer, I'll tell her that although I think she has tried it in the past.  I have sowed some seed today ;D

I do wonder what she was talking about as I have 14 seedlings up today!  I hope they are as easy to keep going, not likely to rot off are they?

Sedum pulchellum is an annual, unfortunately.

Thanks for that Lori, I have saved some seeds and will start them off early next year so hope to keep it!

Cohan!

Unfortunately I have only the variegated form of S. lineare so I couldn’t take pictures here. Although I attach the descriptions of the two sedums. I hope it will help to you.

Thanks, Kovacs! (or should I say Pal?) I don't have either plant to compare, but I will pass this along to the person who has the unidentified plant...
