SEMPERVIVUM x ‘Red Rubin’ (Hen & Chicks)

Description

This old European plant is perfect for introducing children to gardening. Besides being indestructible, the curious, fleshy leaves are short, pointed, and are arranged like a nest. Foliage color varies from solid green to solid purple and all shades and combinations in between; some will change color as the season progresses. New, smaller shoots appear alongside the rosette, forming a tight cluster of “hen and chicks.”

green/rose MSU 4-6”H x 12-18”W Rosettes with large, flattened succulent leaves that are green in the center and blushed burgundy red on the outer leaves.
