Thunder Sempervivum Hens & Chicks Succulent - 4" pot

Thunder (aka Skrocki) is a Sempervivum with serious presence — wide, open rosettes of silvery gray-green leaves with a hint of pink that deepen into soft lavender-purple as temperatures drop. A color-changer that earns its name through every season.

Care:

Seasonal Notes:

Sempervivum succulents grow most actively in spring and summer. Incredibly frost-hardy, they overwinter happily under a blanket of snow. Protect from heavy rains and standing water to prevent rot.

The mother plant ("hen") sends off offsets ("chicks") that can be left to form tidy clusters or removed to share and transplant. Easy to propagate. Do not fertilize. Space 6" apart.

Suggested Use: Rock gardens, trough gardens, wall crevices, dry gardens, edging, and containers.
