Description
Black Hen and Chicks (Sempervivum ‘Black’) is a striking succulent known for its deep burgundy to almost black rosettes, which intensify in color with full sun and cooler temperatures. This hardy, drought-tolerant plant produces clusters of “chicks” around the central “hen,” spreading to form a dense, low-growing mat.
In summer, mature rosettes may produce tall, star-shaped pink flowers before dying back, allowing new offsets to take their place. Perfect for rock gardens, containers, and ground cover, Black Hen and Chicks thrives in well-draining soil and requires minimal care, making it a favorite for xeriscaping and easy landscaping.
