 While the weather was still warm, on Wednesday, I used the morning to have my cup of coffee on the balcony, in the company of my sedums and houseleeks. <\/p>\n

<\/a><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n

For months now, I have been planning to turn the garage roof into a sedum\/houseleek garden. The garage is in the front yard, with a flat rooftop, and it seems like a perfect place for a small garden. Even the height is perfect and the angle of the roof is positioned perfectly so that the whole roof is visible from the road, so covering the grey roof with a bunch of small colored carpets should look nice. <\/p>\n

I’m also thinking of making small gutters and screwing them to the walls of the garage so that I could grow some more sedums there and cover the whole garage in plants.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
I was planning to start the roof this year, but I gave up on the idea since I didn’t have enough sedums or access to the roof. The wood scraps that were left from the demolition of the workshed covered the terrace completely, and I had no way to get to the roof. Still, I haven’t given up on the idea. I’ll do the roof during the spring, and judging by the looks, I’ll have some nice sedums to put on top.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
I’ve bought some new sedums last summer and all of them are doing great. Many of them have doubled their size and none look sick or like they are dying. <\/div>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
<\/p>\n
\n
<\/a><\/div>\n

<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
<\/a><\/div>\n

<\/div>\n

\n
<\/a><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n

I’ve also taken cuttings from the sedums that I already had at home and 90% of them grew roots and are growing like mad. The cold December stopped their growth a bit, but they are still perfectly healthy.<\/p><\/div>\n

<\/p>\n
<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
\n
<\/a><\/p>\n
<\/a><\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n

Houseleeks haven’t grown as much as the sedums, but they are still healthy and growing. I’m not expecting them to double in such a short period. I’d be happy if they survive the winter without dead plants.<\/p><\/div>\n

<\/div>\n
\n
<\/a><\/div>\n

<\/div>\n

\n
<\/a><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n

I’m keeping all of my sedums in containers on the balcony during the winter. Here they are under the roof and I’m keeping most of them on the dry side. I water them very rarely. I have a feeling they prefer the dry and cold over the wet soil and freezing. Once they will be on the roof, the soil will be mixed with some stones, and there will be enough draining so that the soil will never be too wet.<\/p><\/div>\n

<\/div>\n
\n
<\/a><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n

I will still need to buy some more plants and take more cuttings from the existing ones for my project, but I’m perfectly happy with the amount of the ones I have now. If they all survive the winter. <\/p><\/div>\n
