Description

Huge garden succulents that couldn't be easier to grow! Truly no-fuss, low maintenance, and ever-reliable Sempervivums that grow big and certainly won't shy away in the background.

Commonly known as houseleeks, these succulents provide something a little bit different to the garden, and are so simple to maintain. This ‘Giants’ collection features remarkable colour combinations, worthy of becoming your new favourite.

Each variety produces neat rosettes of outstretching fleshy leaves, and are low-growing and available in many colours, so will look outstanding in more-or-less any style of garden.

These drought-tolerant plants are a favourite to grow with kids and could prove to be a ‘foot in the door’ for a life-long interest in gardening!

Sempervivums need to be planted in well-drained soil in full sun, tolerating drought once established. Leaf colour is dependent on temperature and light, so may vary in intensity throughout the year.

Supplied as three established plants in 12cm pots, including one each of:

  • ‘Giants Copper Canyon’ – A beautiful colour combination forms as copper-red edges glow around a bright jade centre from spring. The copper shade moves into the centre as the year progresses and the edges fall to ruby.
  • ‘Giants Emerald Explosion’ – Few plants boast this colour combination – emerald green edges add shimmering interest to burgundy leaves. This colour even stays strong throughout the year.
  • ‘Giants Gold Mine’ – The outstanding shiny gold and dark maroon-red colouring of ‘Gold Mine’ leaves remain consistent, regardless of the season.
Top Tips
Plant individual varieties 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 and in well-drained soil.
  • Sempervivum plants prefer well-drained soil with sand or grit added.
  • Grow them in trays or pots, in the ground, or on wood or in rock piles. Once established, the plants need no further care.
  • Once a rosette flowers, it dies back so simply pull out the dead rosette and fill the hole with gritty soil. The plant will quickly fill in any empty spots 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.
