Sempervivum 'Winter Red' is a charming succulent that will add character and texture to any garden or patio. This small clumping variety produces striking green leaves that gradually turn to deep maroon and brilliant red, making it a real eye-catcher. The plant offsets at the base to form compact heads, creating beautiful rosettes that are perfect for rock gardens, borders, or containers.
To thrive, Sempervivum 'Winter Red' requires well-draining soil and light watering on a regular basis, allowing it to dry out completely between each watering. This succulent is prone to rotting, so it's essential to ensure the soil is not waterlogged. During the hotter months, it's best to provide filtered sunlight to prevent leaf scorching, whereas in cooler months, full sunlight is ideal. It's recommended to place the plant in a bright area with a cool atmosphere all year round.
One of the best things about Sempervivum 'Winter Red' is its hardiness. This frost-hardy plant can survive in temperatures as low as -5°C and is well suited to Australia's climate. In addition, this succulent is relatively easy to care for, making it a great option for beginner gardeners.
In conclusion, Sempervivum 'Winter Red' is a fascinating succulent that will add color and texture to any garden or patio. With its striking green, maroon, and red leaves, compact heads, and frost hardiness, it's an excellent choice for anyone looking to create a low-maintenance, visually appealing garden.
