Product Highlights
Sempervivum tectorum is a popular succulent because it is tough and good-looking. The thick leaves store water, so the plant handles dry spells well. The red tips stand out against the green, and the colour often looks richer with plenty of bright light. Over time, the mother plant grows small baby rosettes around it. These are the “chicks”, and you can grow them into new plants. The black pot gives it a clean, modern look that suits any space. It is also a thoughtful gift for birthdays, housewarmings and office desks.
