SEMPERVIVUM Mixture quart

Common name: Hens and Chicks

 Gardeners who take the “no fuss” approach will love sempervivium plants. Sempervivum care and maintenance are almost task free and their lovely rosettes and hardy nature are stand outs among the garden. Not only do the plants thrive on neglect but they produce offsets, or new plants, every season that are simple to separate and grow as new specimens.

Sempervivum plants prefer well-draining compost with 25 to 50 % sand or other grit. They may grow in trays, in ground, or on wood or in rock piles. Once established, the plant’s need no further care – in most cases. The majority of sempervivum are frost hardy but it you prefer to grow a variety that is not, plant it in a pot or flat and move indoors for winter.
