Highlights
Sempervivum globiferum f/ Budai Mountains: A fun form of a naturally occurring species from Hungary. It's quite petite, but makes up for it with an absolutely prolific mass of new offsets each year. As with other members of this species, the offsets are small and spherical. They easily fall off the mother rosette and roll away to root. In only a few seasons, a single plant can spread into an immense colony.
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.
