Sempervivum filiferum glabrum is a low-growing evergreen groundcover cactus / succulent with burgundy, green and red foliage. In summer pink and white flowers emerge. Features fuzzy texture. Attracts bees making it an excellent addition to pollinator gardens. Grows well with sun - mostly sun and low water. Drought tolerant once established. Prefers to be dry in winter. Does well in average, gritty, rocky and well-drained soil. A good option if you're seeking something heat tolerant.
