If you’ve got boulders in the back forty or a rocky sandy sun-drenched spot in the dooryard, you have the makings for an amazing cascading Sempervivum display.
Sempervivum means ‘always alive.’ Low-growing rosette-forming succulents produce runners and babies by the boatload. Drought- and heat-tolerant beyond belief, and cold-hardy, too!
Sempervivums offer up a fun way to learn about fractals and how our world works—you can plant them in a strawberry pot with the kids for a fun easy-to-care for botany/math project, or go whole hog and build a mini-boulder palace all decked out in Hens and Chicks and mosses.
Performs best in super-drained gravelly soil with lots of sun and dappled shade. We’re offering a mix of varieties including reds, greens and purples. Z3. (2½" pots)
