Sedum takesimense
« on: July 09, 2013, 01:41:05 PM »
The plants I have refuse to flower.I tried them in ordinary garden soil ,but also starving them in a pot and in a gritty mixture in the rockgarden.Alll the plants are cuttings from the same parentplant.
Has somebody experienced the same thing?
Are there non flowering clones?

I would have thought that starving it would force it to flower f it were possible. It's a plant used quite a lot for green roof plantings, and I believe it flowers well enough in that  situation.
