Sempervivum ‘Ruby Heart’
Hen-and-chicks |
USDA Zone: 2-9 |
Plant number: 1.490.590
One of the most familiar and easiest to grow garden perennials, yet never lacking in appeal. It forms a low clump of fleshy leaves, tiny new plants appearing in a circle around the mother in the middle. This selection produces medium rosettes with sharply pointed, silvery-blue to blue green leaves, flushed rosy-red at the base. Colour varies with temperature changes. Unique pinkish-purple flowers appear mid summer. Extremely drought tolerant once established. Easily increased by just removing the small baby rosettes and replanting in a new location.
