Sempervivum Type #3
Sempervivum, commonly known as Houseleeks or Hens and Chicks, is a genus of captivating succulent plants renowned for their hardiness and resilience.
Key Features:
Rosette Formation: Sempervivum plants form stunning rosettes of fleshy, often pointed leaves, creating a mesmerizing geometric pattern.
Diverse Colors & Textures: The leaves come in a variety of colors, including green, red, purple, and even shades of blue, often with unique textures like velvety hairs or a powdery coating.
Mat-Forming Habit: These succulents spread by producing offsets, or "chicks," that cluster around the "hen" plant, creating a beautiful carpet-like effect over time.
Drought Tolerance: Sempervivum is incredibly drought-tolerant, requiring minimal watering once established, making them perfect for rock gardens, containers, or green roofs.
Cold Hardiness: These succulents are known for their ability to withstand cold temperatures, making them suitable for gardens in a variety of climates.
Flowering: While not their main attraction, mature rosettes may produce tall flower stalks with star-shaped blooms in colors like pink, red, or yellow.
Growing Conditions:
Sunlight: Prefers full sun to partial shade, although some varieties can tolerate more shade.
Soil: Thrives in well-draining soil, such as a cactus or succulent mix.
Water: Requires infrequent watering, allowing the soil to dry out completely between waterings. Overwatering can lead to root rot.
Uses:
Rock Gardens: Their drought tolerance and mat-forming habit make them ideal for rock gardens.
Containers: Perfect for adding a touch of color and texture to patios, balconies, and indoor spaces.
Green Roofs: Their ability to withstand harsh conditions makes them suitable for green roofs.
The succulent plant housed in the red pot comes in a 80mm diameter container. While the image provides a representative depiction of what you will receive, but may vary slightly because no two succulents are the same.
