Sempervivum x barbulaum ‘Hookeri’
Sempervivums are easy, low maintenance alpine plants. They are ideal for planting in rock, scree and gravel gardens, as well as urban planting scheme such as bricks, old drainpipes and sinks. When rosettes are mature, they produce long flowering stalks during the summer. While individual rosettes die after flowering, plants continue by producing offsets.
- Aspect: Plant in a dry and sunny position.
- Planting: Requires a very well drained soil or compost. Add perlite to compost to help improve drainage. They can be planted any time of year, but spring is ideal.
- Care: Requires very little water and feed. Add a slow release fertiliser to container grown plants.
