Graptosedum 'Francesco Baldi' is a stunning intergeneric hybrid that combines the best traits of Graptopetalum paraguayense and Sedum pachyphyllum. Known for its changing colors and effortless elegance, this succulent is a favorite for both beginners and seasoned collectors looking to add a "glow" to their gardens.
Graptosedum 'Francesco Baldi' is a hardy, sun-loving succulent hybrid that originated in Italy. It forms attractive rosettes at the tips of ever-lengthening stems that eventually trail or sprawl, making it an excellent choice for groundcover or hanging pots. Its fleshy, lance-shaped leaves are typically a soft bluish-gray, but they transform into vibrant shades of pink, orange, and golden yellow when "stressed" by sunlight or cool temperatures. In the spring, it produces clusters of dainty, star-shaped yellow flowers that provide a bright contrast to its pastel foliage.
The 'Francesco Baldi' is celebrated for its incredible color plasticity—it acts like a living mood ring for your garden, shifting hues based on the season and light exposure. It is also exceptionally resilient and prolific; it is often called a "guilt-free" succulent because it bounces back quickly from neglect and can easily be multiplied to fill large areas or shared with friends.
-
Full sun to partial shade. At least 6 hours of direct sun is needed to bring out the intense sunset colors.
Must be gritty and fast-draining. A dedicated cactus and succulent mix amended with 50% coarse sand, pumice, or perlite is ideal.
Use the "soak and dry" method. Water deeply only when the soil is completely dry. Avoid getting water trapped in the rosettes.
Prefers 15°C to 27°C. It is notably heat-tolerant but appreciates some afternoon shade during extreme heatwaves.
-
Hardy in Zones 9a to 11b. It can handle light frost but should be brought indoors if temperatures drop below -1°C.

Interesting book about the flag that inspired the National Anthem
Format: Hardcover
Our Flag Was Still There: The True Story of Mary Pickersgill and the Star-Spangled Banner, written and illustrated by Jessie Hartland, was released just last month. I requested it from the library months ago... Unfortunately, it didn't make it to my hands before I published my 4th of July booklist, but I have it now, and it's wonderful!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Our Flag Was Still There this tells the story of the flag that eventually our National Anthem. While I knew the story of Francis Scott Key’s inspiration, I didn’t know anything about the actual flag that he saw, nor did I realize that I’ve seen it myself. I didn't realize how big it was, how long it took to make, or that it was made largely by a group of women. And then I read this book!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
But this story is about so much more than just a flag. Through her words and illustrations, Hartland gives a little information about America's independence and the War of 1812, which led to the commissioning of this extra-large flag. We meet the widow, Mary Pickersgill, and her family and indentured servant, who worked together to make this enormous symbol of our country. Hartland introduces the British attack of Fort McHenry in Baltimore. And then we see Key, who witnessed the attack from a boat and penned a poem in honor of the victory and the American flag that was still flying proudly over the city. Finally, we learn about how Key's poem eventually became our national anthem, as well as what happened to her famous flag between 1814 and present-day.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Yes, Our Flag Was Still There teaches a little bit of history, but it also honors hard work and women from a time in history from which we know mostly men. I appreciate the relative simplicity of the illustrations, as many historical picture books have so much going on in the illustrations that it's hard to know where to look. Like me, you may appreciate knowing the history of the flag behind the song and the realization that you've seen that flag before (in the Smithsonian Museums)!

The story of a very big flag that inspired a song and a nation
Format: Kindle, Format: Kindle
Major George Armistead wanted to send a big message to the British, on their way to capturing Baltimore. It was 1813 and once again America and Britain were at war. Major Armistead wanted to say to the British: This land belongs to America. He needed a flag, a big flag, a flag over forty feet across. But who could make such a huge flag?
Mary Pickersgill could. With the help of the women in her shop, Mary Pickersgill did.
This is the story of the enormous American flag that now hangs in the Smithsonian. It's a reminder of Major Armistead's desire for America to be free. It's a reminder of the Star-Spangled Banner, our national anthem inspired by this flag.
What a wonderful tribute to this flag and the flag makers. I love the storytelling and the illustrations of Jessie Hartland.

Not very detailed
Format: Hardcover
Cute illustrations, but I wished it would have went into a little more detail to be more informative for my kids. It was pretty simplistic.
