Ashes of Roses Succulent - Hens and Chicks Sempervivum Plant - 4 inch pot

This is a lovely, tufted cultivar with velvety leaves. Its medium to small rosettes shift between sunset tones of pink, orange, and yellow, with a green base color. This variety produces plentiful chicks in the spring.

Hens and 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. They are incredibly frost hardy and will happily overwinter under an insulating blanket of snow. Protect from heavy rains and standing water to prevent rot.
