Sempervivum ‘Appletini’
Appletini has dark green pointed leaves with burgundy tips which are beautiful all year round. Sempervivum are easily grown in any sunny well drained, even parched parts of the garden. They make excellent pot plants as long as they are grown outside and in as sunny a position as possible. In spite of their common name, house leeks are generally not successful as indoor plants.
It takes a year or two for the individual rosettes to grow large enough to flower, in the meanwhile producing many offsets. A mature rosette will produce a 15cm tall flower stem bearing up to six small, sunflower-like blooms in shades of pink. Whilst the flowering rosettes die soon after, they leave behind so many new rosettes that Sempervivum have been given the common name hens and chickens.
