Handsome house leek with light green and purple leaves that are often green in the center and on the outer edges and deep reddish-brown in the middle. Medium-sized rosettes multiply quickly and form colonies over time. Excellent choice for the rock or alpine garden or as a container specimen where rosettes will spill over the edges of the pot. Evergreen. Full to part sun. Frost hardy to USDA zone 5. Crassulaceae
