A cultivar from the UK, this medium-sized rosette grows well outdoors and transitions between olive green and deep burgundy throughout the seasons. The waxy coating on its leaves helps it survive extended droughts, but it also makes for attractive striations or "watermarks".
Like all Sempervivum, Amanda does most of its growing in the spring and summer and will thrive with weekly watering. They are incredibly frost-hardy and will happily overwinter under a blanket of snow.
Hens Chicks need plenty of outdoor sunlight to show their best colors and maintain a tight rosette form. If you're growing indoors keep by a sunny window.
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.
