Sempervivum Bing Cherry makes a bold statement with deep cherry burgundy colours in winter warming to orange burgundy in spring and summer. The dangerously collectible Chick Charms series offers the boldest coloured and best-growing hen and chicks available. Sempervivum are super hardy requiring only full sun and excellent, sharp drainage, especially in coastal BC. Grow them as an edger for pathways or borders or in pots.
