Description

Sempervivums are experiencing a fresh wave of popularity as people are rightfully enthralled by the ease and versatility these plants have to offer.

Known as iconic houseleeks, these delightful ‘Gold Nugget’ take gardeners, both seasoned and beginners alike, on a fascinating journey of colour across the seasons!

Pointed leaves first emerge golden green with dark red edges in spring, before becoming completely coated in lime green for summer. Autumn sees the springtime colour combination of red and green return, before dark red spreads across the leaves in winter. Plus, summer brings a subtle scattering of pink star-like flowers, which gather in clusters on leafy stems.

Really easy to grow and a favourite with kids, Sempervivum just need a fully sunny spot in well-drained soil, even tolerating drought once established. Please note, leaf colour is dependent on temperature and light, so may vary in intensity across the seasons. A variety known for making the most of whatever growing situation on offer, thriving whether in trays or pots, in the ground, or on wood or in rock piles.

Supplied as a set of three established plants in 9cm pots, ready to plant.

Top Tips
Plant in a clay pot in gritty soil, top with small gravel and display each one on a sunny outside windowsill.
Care Information
  • Plant in full sun in well-drained soil. Improve well-drained soil conditions even further by adding sand or grit prior to planting these houseleeks.
  • Grow in trays or pots, in the ground, or on wood or in rock piles. Once established, the plants need no further care as they will look after themselves!
  • A rosette will die back after flowering. Simply pull out the dead rosette and fill the hole with gritty soil, with the plant quickly replacing those lost with offsets.
Delivery Information

Please allow us 3-5 working days to dispatch your order. Pre-ordered items will be sent as soon as possible after the date quoted and we'll generally ship your entire order with your pre-ordered items. When your order is dispatched, we'll send you another email with details of how to track it.

Most orders are sent on a fully-tracked courier service with Yodel. To avoid perishable items being stuck at depots and deteriorating, no signature is required, and our courier is asked to leave your order in a safe place on your property.

We'll send a tracking link when we dispatch your order, so you know when its due to arrive. Please note, once delivered we cannot be held responsible for loss or theft from your property. If you have any specific delivery instructions, please let us know - there's an option to enter a short message for the courier at the checkout.

Smaller, lighter, single-item orders may be sent through the post with Royal Mail - in which case no tracking is available.

Our experienced nursery team will always send your plants nursery fresh in the perfect condition to thrive when you plant them, so although most plants are very tough and will not be affected by all but the most extreme frosts or heatwaves, we avoid dispatching the most perishable plants if extreme weather is forecast, or over Bank Holiday weekends.

Please note, we cannot guarantee delivery on a certain day or time. Delivery to outlying postcode areas may take 1-2 days longer, dependent on your location.
