Sempervivum X Silverine Houseleek

Sempervivum x 'Silverine,' commonly known as Houseleek or Hen and Chicks, is a captivating and resilient succulent plant appreciated for its unique and intricate rosette form. This low-growing perennial forms dense clumps of tightly packed, fleshy, silver-green leaves adorned with fine white hairs, which give them a distinctive silvery sheen. 'Silverine' Houseleek produces offsets, or "chicks," that cluster around the main rosette, creating a charming and visually appealing arrangement. In mid summer, mature rosettes may send up slender stems topped with star-shaped, pinkish-purple flowers, held aloft on short, leafy stalks. This succulent is highly adaptable, thriving in well-drained soil and full sun to partial shade conditions, making it an excellent choice for rock gardens, containers, or as a ground cover.
