Description

Sempervivum calcareum, Houseleek, Lakshmi Kamal, Succulent Plant

Laxmi Kamal Sempervivum is a mat-forming, evergreen, succulent perennial, up to 4 inches (10 cm) tall, forming rosettes of fleshy, ovate, pointed, maroon-tipped, grey-green leaves. Short spikes of pink flowers appear in summer. Perfect for containers, rock gardens, as a ground cover, or anywhere else you can imagine. When this plant grows into a wider clump it is more likely to start flowering. When it does flower you will notice that the rosettes that have the flowers will die after flowering, however the rest of the clump will not die, and continue to grow, filling in the spaces.

Sempervivum Calcareum Succulent.  Growing in 2″ pots.   Green rosettes with dark red tips.  These look great in container gardens or indoors in orbs/pots.  These offset quickly and form colonies of many plants over time.  They like fast draining soil, bright light(Some direct sun), water only when the soil dries.
