Hard to get adequate descriptions in the title on these. First up for your perusal, bought on the succulent table and now has yellow flowers. I am pretty sure the name was on the pot but that got thrown away. Yellow flowered whatsit ( photo / image / picture from toni's Garden ) This coming up where I don't remember planting anything but since my yard is home to many birds, any one of them could have 'planted' it for me. Pinate leaves? ( photo / image / picture from toni's Garden ) Ground cover found on north side of house just outside the shade garden. It's not Dollar Weed. Dollar weed has the stem coming from the middle of the leaf and this leaf has scalloped edges. Mine has the stem coming from the end of the small notch in the leaf and the edges are perfectly smooth. Kinda cute ( photo / image / picture from toni's Garden )
First one is a Sedum (though it might have changed as a lot of Sedums have been renamed recently) kantschaticum possibly.
I sure thought that last one was Dollar Weed. Since its is one of my biggest problems, anything that slightly resembles them gets yanked out right away. I, too, wonder what it is.
Thanks Palustris, you got it. It's now called Phedimus kamtschaticus http://www.sedumphotos.net/v/sedum-kl/S ... 1.jpg.html but I think mine was labeled Sedum cause I definitely don't remember a Phediumus. I was at Lowe's this morning and saw my mystery plant on a table there....it's Indian Blanket. I vaguely remember having an Indian Blanket planted on the other side of the yard about 3 years ago...guess a bird ate a seed from the only flower that bloomed and planted it in a new place for me. Cheryl, my first thought was Dollar weed too that's why I did some google searches to make sure it wasn't. I will probably dig it up but not until I get a positive ID on it. Basically because it's pretty much the only thing growing in that area and looks much better than bare dirt.
YEA, thanks Carolyn. I found Dichondra brachypoda listed as a Native wildflower in Texas, New Mexico and Arizona. Not much information on line about it but enough to fill in a good portion of it's page in our database and I can take a few photos too.
Interesting. I'm gonna have to check out my weeds a little closer. Does the Dichondra have runners like the Dollar Weed?
Toni and Cheryl, This is grown as a hanging basket plant up here. I had two really nice pots for spring that I was wintering over and I accidentally over fertilized them and killed them. Cheryl, yes, this should root at each leaf node on the stem...at least the variety I get up here does. it also comes in a "silver" variety, too.
