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 plants need full sun and prefer average to rather poor, sandy, or rocky soil, which must drain quickly. Do not fertilize. Space 6" apart.

SUGGESTED USE: In rock gardens, trough gardens, wall crevices, dry gardens, edging, strawberry jars, or other containers.
