Highlights
Sempervivum 'Itchen' (Godaert): A spectacular, large rosette that can show lots of different colors over the course of a year. It has green leaves tipped in pink to red and shifts to blue-green and purple in winter. It has narrow, pointed leaves and produces new offsets on long stolons.
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 85F. They are incredibly frost hardy and will happily thrive through winter under a blanket of snow. Protect from heavy rains and standing water to prevent rot.
