Edge of Night Succulent - Hens and Chicks Sempervivum Plant - 4in pot

Sempervivum 'Edge of Night' (Vaughn): Has long, narrow leaves with dark purple on the leaf tips and rosette center. The plant has a coating of protective epicuticular wax that gives it a gorgeous "watermarked" look. This cultivar is a hybrid of S. 'Jungle Shadows' x S. 'Grey Lady'.

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 and afternoon shade if temperatures exceed 80F. They are incredibly frost hardy and will happily thrive through winter under an insulating blanket of snow.
