Sempervivum Red Beauty
Sempervivum ‘Red Beauty’ Plant Care Notes Place your Sempervivum where it can bask in bright, indirect light. These plants love the sun, and the more they soak up, the more vivid their colors become. When it comes to temperature, Sempervivum are impressively cold-tolerant and can handle frosty winters just as well as scorching summers. For soil, well-draining is the name of the game. Choose a gritty cactus or succulent mix with added pumice or perlite to keep roots from sitting in water. Water sparingly—let the soil dry out completely between drinks, and cut back even more in the winter. Propagation couldn’t be easier! Just wait for a chick to grow, then gently remove it with roots intact and replant. Give it a little time, and it’ll start its own cozy coop soon enough.
