Also known as 'semps', 'houseleeks', 'hens and chicks' and 'liveforever', this colourful collection of our favourite cultivars are perfect for a dry, sunny spot. Planting a few of each variety together creates a striking impact of colourful foliage lasting all year round.
Sempervivums are among the most frost-resistant succulents, making them popular especially for low maintenance, drought tolerant gardening. Their thick succulent leaves store water for when it is needed and as their name suggests ('liveforever')it is a perennial plant that keeps its leaves in winter and is very resistant to difficult conditions of growth. Although promoted and often planted for the fantastic range of colours and shapes of their foliage, their star-shaped flowers are particularly attractive to bees and butterflies too.
They are perfect for getting children involved and creative in the garden ~ easy to handle, resilient and colourful. Let them get creative, decorating old play trucks, colanders or making patterns such as spirals in wide containers. Ideal for a raised alpine bed, sloping rock garden, upcycled projects, roof gardening, crevices and for filling gaps in the garden.
All plants will be in 9cm pots and ready for immediate planting. Grown on our Lincolnshire nursery in peat free compost. Hardy, healthy, ready to plant in garden.
