Description

Ever-reliable succulent plants that are easy to grow, this ‘Giants’ collection of houseleeks features remarkable colour combinations.

Neat rosettes of fleshy leaves are low-growing and drought-tolerant, are perfect for introducing youngsters to the wonderful world of gardening.

Sempervivums should be planted in well-drained soil in full sun, tolerating drought once established. The leaf colour is dependent on temperature and light, so may vary in intensity throughout the year.

Supplied as three established plants in 12cm pots, including one each of:

  • ‘Giants Copper Canyon’ – A beautiful colour combination forms as copper-red edges glow around a bright jade centre from spring. The copper shade moves into the centre as the year progresses and the edges fall to ruby.
  • ‘Giants Emerald Explosion’ – Few plants boast this colour combination – emerald green edges add shimmering interest to burgundy leaves. This colour even stays strong throughout the year.
  • ‘Giants Gold Mine’ – The outstanding shiny gold and dark maroon-red colouring of the ‘Gold Mine’ remains consistent, regardless of the season.
Top Tips
Plant individual varieties in a clay pot in gritty soil, top with small gravel and display each one on a sunny outside windowsill.
Care Information
  • Plant in full sun and in well-drained soil.
  • Sempervivum plants prefer well-drained soil with sand or grit added.
  • Grow them in trays or pots, in the ground, or on wood or in rock piles. Once established, the plants need no further care.
  • Once a rosette flowers, it dies back so simply pull out the dead rosette and fill the hole with gritty soil. The plant will quickly fill in any empty spots with offsets.
