"Carnival" Succulent Hen & Chicks Sempervivum Plant - 4" Pot

"Carnival" Succulent Hen & Chicks Sempervivum Plant

Sempervivum Carnival is a lovely, rosette-forming succulent with bold, scarlet-red margins and green centers. The wide, pointed leaves are edged with fine cilia, giving off a silvery glow. In summer, the tone will be more scarlet and in winter a dark maroon.

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. They are incredibly frost hardy and will happily thrive through winter under an insulating blanket of snow.
