Description: Sempervivum tectorumGrown it in average, dry to medium moisture, well-drained soils in full sun. While it will tolerate some light shade, it will need some afternoon shade in extremely hot sunny locations. It thrives in sandy or gravelly soils and will tolerate poor soils and some drought. To preform well it needs sharp soil drainage and avoid overwatering. Plants spread by offsets to form colonies. The original rosette is referred to as the hen, the offsets from that rosette are called the chick. Individual rosettes die after bloom and should be removed from the garden at that time. This plant is moderately salt tolerant. Hens and chicks are a succulent plant in the family Sempervivum , native to the mountains of southern Europe. It is cultivated in the whole of Europe for its unique gemoetric fleshy appearance and a Roman tradition claiming that it protects buildings against lightning strikes. The botanical name Sempervivum is Latin for "live forever", which refers to the offsets that are produced easily spreading the plant. Damaged leaves or small branch breakage can be a normal part of the shipping process and does not affect the health of the plant.
