If I find it again, I might bring home another Senecio crassimus this year.   Judging by the bruising and damage to its leaves, the pampered life of a container might be more suitable to this light shade-tolerant succulent.  I&#8217;ll miss those purply stems and leaves alongside the path of the gravel garden rising up out of a carpet of Sedum rupestre &#8216;Angelina,&#8217; but if I pot up the senecio with a small piece of &#8216;Angelina&#8217; today to pair up these two again in a container, I should get a full chartreuse carpet in the pot, oh, in about a week.  <a href=\"http:\/\/non-secateur.blogspot.com\/\">Dustin Gimbel<\/a> has shared some S. rupestre &#8216;Lemon Coral&#8217; with me, which he finds vastly superior to &#8216;Angelina,&#8217; so I&#8217;ll be having a comparative growathon between the two this spring. <\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/i52.photobucket.com\/albums\/g23\/botanizeme\/2011\/319aft008.jpg\" border=\"0\" alt=\"Photobucket\"><\/a><\/p>\n<p><\/big><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I don&#8217;t see this succulent for sale frequently, or in gardens very often for that matter.
