About This Item
Commonly known as Mountain Hens and Chicks, this ground cover plant can be grown from Sempervivum seeds. Hens and Chicks is a hardy perennial with many small, succulent tight rosettes 2 - 3 inches in diameter all crowded together forming a clump.
The rosettes produce many offsets, and the clump can grow over time. Hens and Chicks flowers are in clusters and are reddish-purple and star-shaped. The flowers rise up on short stalks in early summer.
Grow Sempervivum succulent plants in sun or light shade and in a sandy well-drained soil. Avoid watering the Mountain Sempervivum excessively, always leaving the soil dry for a few days between waterings. Mountain Hens and Chicks work well in rock gardens, containers, and as a general ground cover plant.
They are hardy below 0F and listed to USDA zone 4. Sempervivum Montanum plants are evergreen requiring very little maintenance to thrive.
Sow Hens and Chicks seeds indoors in peat pots. Use a well-draining starter mix and press the Sempervivum seeds into the mix. Cover the seed very lightly with peat moss as the Hens and Chicks ground cover seeds need light to germinate. Keep seeds moist but not wet.
