Sempervivum 'Virgil' Succulent-Hens & Chicks, 4" Pot Live Plant
Live Sempervivum 'Virgil' is lovely, medium-sized rosette that shifts between blue, lavender, pink, and silver tones. It has distinctive "watermarks" or wavy striations from its protective coating of epicuticular wax. This variety deepens to a royal purple in winter.
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 overwinter under an insulating blanket of snow. Protect from heavy rains and standing water to prevent rot.
