The Chick Charms® Mint Chocolate Chips^™ Hens and Chicks (Sempervivum Mint Chocolate Chip^™ PPAF), hybridized by Chris Hansen of Chick Charms® and registered in 2023. This is a delightful succulent that stands out with its bold chocolate burgundy leaves and mint green hue. Here are some key details about this charming plant:

• Appearance: The rosettes of the Mint Chocolate Chips^™ Hens and Chicks have thick, fleshy leaves that grow in a compact arrangement. The leaves start with green tips and, as the temperature cools, turn predominantly burgundy with green tips. 
• Blooms summer through Fall
• Size: Each plant can spread up to 12 inches wide, making a big impact in your landscape. 
• Care Tips:
  • Sunlight: Plant in full to partial sun (at least 5 hours of direct sunlight).
  • Soil: Well-draining soil is best.
  • Watering: Water only when the soil is dry; they don’t require heavy watering.
  • Fertilization: These Hens and Chicks are not heavy feeders, so fertilization isn’t necessary.
  • Propagation: After blooming, the mother hens decline and send out new plants (the chicks) on stolons. Remove the mother hens to make space for new chicks.
  • Animal Resistance: Foraging animals tend to leave them alone, providing peace of mind.
• Uses: Mint Chocolate Chips Hens and Chicks are great for rock gardens, ground covers, or container planting.
