Falling in Love Again

Dahlias are my first love, horticulturaly speaking, but I'm falling in love with these as well.

It's a Sempervivum, I love the the symmetry and size of  them.

Beloved has some small ones in her fairy garden  but these are enormous.

Theres another one as an extra.

The other extra is a poor dahlia in a local garden centre that usually takes better care than this.
