'Killer' Hen and Chick Succulent (Sempervivum)
Sempervivum 'Killer' (Schara): A lovely olive-green rosette that gets splashes of dark red to mahogany through the seasons. Its leaves are long and pointed and it produces new offsets on long stolons. This variety benefits from a dappled shade and a gravel top dressing between the soil and leaves.
Hens & Chicks need plenty of outdoor sunlight to show their best colors and maintain a tight rosette form. They thrive in gritty, well-drained soil and pots with drainage holes. They produce new offsets or "chicks" on stolons. These chicks can be left to form tidy clusters or removed to share and transplant.
Sempervivum do most of their growing in the spring and summer, and will thrive with weekly watering and afternoon shade if temperatures exceed 80F. They are incredibly frost hardy and will happily thrive through winter under an insulating blanket of snow. Protect from heavy rains and standing water to prevent rot.
