Product Details
Highlights
Sempervivum 'Princess Little' (Smits): A sweet, tufted cultivar. This variety forms a low, open rosette packed with leaves. The leaves are lined with fine, white cilia that give it a fuzzy or frosted look. In most seasons it has a soft green coloration with a rosy pink blush. Spring and full sun tend to bring on a complete transformation to deep burgundy, offset by the white fringe of cilia.
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.
