You Know Summer is Over When ...

There are so many signs that summer is coming to an end. It's getting colder in the evenings, the birds totally change their habits etc. But the one thing thats always been my 'key' to admitting it is - Sedum. Sedum is a plant I've had in my gardens for about 25 years. A friends sister gave me a cutting that many years ago. It's easily divided and over the years it ended up in many gardens. When I moved to Peterborough 2 years ago I brought a cutting with me and now already have 2 large plants here. They are one of the last plants to bloom. When the Sedum blooms ... I know summer is almost over.



I've always liked this rubbery plant. It has strong stems and always keeps a nice shape. They will actually survive through winter in pots - I know because thats where I had some for years. I believe the one I have is called "Autumn Joy". Now there are probably many varieties of sedum (also know as stonecrop) but this is alot taller then the common stonecrop that alot of people get for a spreading ground cover. So if you are one of those people that says you can't grow anything, try Sedum ... its virtually carefree~!
