Sempervivum ‘Sanford’s Hybrid’


Hen-and-chicks

USDA Zone: 2-9

Plant number: 1.490.600


One of the most familiar garden perennials, yet never lacking in appeal. These form a low clump of fleshy leaves, tiny new plants appearing in a circle around the mother in the middle. This selection produces large rosettes of bronzy purple, especially showy during the colder months. Short spikes of pastel flowers in summer. Although they will grow nearly anywhere, these prefer the sort of well-drained conditions found in a sunny rock garden or wall. Worth trying in any sort of container, even an old shoe! Clumps may be divided at any time.
