Angelina Sedum - Dividing in Spring - May 2024

Last Fall, I discovered a quart-sized Ajuga - Burgundy Glow - that was planted in one of the kid's fairy garden was going REALLY well and I figured I could transplant it into the ground and extend it to being a perennial groundcover.  After all, I have had A LOT of luck with another Ajuga - Chocolate Chip.  So, I dug it out of the fairy garden and popped it into the bed right outside our screened porch door.  

Fast-forward through the Winter and the Ajuga didn't make it.  But, the idea of groundcover over here makes a lot of sense.  But, I don't think Ajuga is right for this spot.  Just a little bit away is the drift of Angelina Sedum that is planted in either side of our back stoop.  I picked up my little shovel, stuck the blade in to make a little square and yanked out two of them - right in the middle of the existing colony of Angelina Sedum.  See below for the two spots I divided:

The conditions of the bed outside the screened porch are identical to where the existing Angelina Sedum has thrived, so it made sense to try it here.  Below, is a look at the two sedum plugs that I transplanted into this existing bed:

I'd love to see this groundcover take-off here.  If I can see it taking hold, it will push me to divide even more and find other full-sun locations for this Angelina Sedum.
