Plant Features
Get your spot ready - the Carmen Sempervivum is a must have plant for any succulent lover! The thick, healthy leaves of the perfectly symmetrical rosette are lettuce green, with red tips. In winter, another show begins as the entire rosette turns a lovely violet shade. These plants really shine in containers or a rock garden, but can you also imagine them peeking through the pebbles of a decorative edge or walkway?
