Cultural Needs
- Exposure
- Thrives in Full Sun to Partial Shade. Color intensification is most prominent when the plants receive significant sun exposure.
- Watering Needs
- Highly drought-tolerant once established. Best results are achieved with a “soak and dry” method; allow the potting medium to dry out completely between waterings.
- Cold Hardiness (Grow Zone)
- Extremely resilient; suitable for year-round outdoor growth in USDA Hardiness Zones 3-13.
- Overwintering
- Unlike most succulents, Sempervivum thrive outdoors in the snow and cold. They can also be successfully grown indoors if provided with adequate light.
