Posted by Rebecca Scott on
We've recently returned from a 4-week filming trip to the US (Colorado, Wyoming, Montana, Idaho, Utah, Arizona, and New Mexico). The main purpose was to shoot the middle film of a mini-series of three films about UFOs or UAP - "The best UFO cases and what they suggest". These three films have just been released on YouTube. Here's the first film: And here's the second one (filmed in the US): And the third and final one of this mini-series: When we wrote, in a previous news update, earlier in the year, that we were going to do this, a customer...
June 2022 update
Posted by Rebecca Scott on
After an unusual but extremely busy couple of years, here's our latest update. This spring's weather has meant that our sempervivums have grown really well and they're looking great as the summer begins. We had to shut down our online shop for a week in March, shortly after reopening following the winter closure. The reason was the same that we closed early at the beginning of September last year: a filming project. I presented a comprehensive series of 42 films on the psychology of attitude - basically, how to be the best you can be. A few of these films...

Fourteen new varieties have just been added to our range of "simply the best" sempervivums - the last major update to our online shop for this year.

Twelve new varieties have just been added to our range of "simply the best" sempervivums. 'Devil's Touch' was awarded Sempervivum of the Year 2019, with 'Teide' in 2nd place. 'Picasso' won Sempervivum of the Year 2018. 'Eyjafjalla' - named after the volcano in Iceland which disrupted air traffic across Europe in 2010 - has come close to winning, with high rankings on several occasions. 'Gargamel', 'Magic Morning', Poollicht', 'Rosenhugel', and 'Sonnenkuss' are all outstanding modern varieties - but, surprisingly, not yet award winners - that we're also pleased to introduce to sempervivum enthusiasts here in the UK. Finally, we've also added...
