Plant details
Closely related to sempervivums or houseleeks, these evergreen plants thrive in poor, dry, gritty soil. They can be grown successfully on roofs, walls and in rock gardens. Their structure: rosettes of succulent leaves which cover the growing surface with a clustered carpet of plants, makes them very drought tolerant. The leaves are shiny green with red tips, which creates a tapestry-like effect when seen en masse.
