Highlights
Sempervivum arachnoideum 'Cebenese' (Payne): One of the larger S. arachnoideum cultivars that produces piles of chicks on long stolons. Eight to nine chicks on one mother is not unusual. 'Cebenese' has a heavy white web with a pink tone on the edges. It can resemble white stones from a distance and makes an excellent choice for green roof and vertical wall projects. This plant is fully rooted in a 3.5" round plastic container.
Hens & Chicks need plenty of outdoor sunlight to show their best colors and maintain a tight rosette form. They thrive in gritty, well-draining soils and pots with drainage holes. They produce new offsets or "chicks" on stolons. These chicks can be left to form tidy clusters or removed to share and transplant.
Sempervivum do most of their growing in the spring and summer, and will thrive with weekly watering and afternoon shade if temperatures exceed 80F. They are incredibly frost hardy and will happily thrive through winter under an insulating blanket of snow. Protect from heavy rains and standing water to prevent rot.
