Sempervivum 'Gabrielle' - Hen & Chicks Succulent

    Plenty To Go Around

    Sempervivum 'Gabrielle' is a gorgeous Hen & Chicks variety forming tight, elegant rosettes with soft, elongated leaves in tones of green flushed with rosy pink. Like all Sempervivums, it earns its common name by constantly producing little offset rosettes, the chicks, around the central mother plant, gradually forming a dense, colourful carpet of growth. Native to the mountain regions of Europe, this is an extraordinarily resilient plant that laughs in the face of frost, drought, and neglect.

    📐 Current Size 5-6 cm across (May 2026)
    ☀️ Sun Full sun to partial shade. The best colouring develops in full sun.
    ⚠️ Toxicity Non-toxic to humans, cats, and dogs.
    💧 Watering Very low. Every 2 to 3 weeks in summer and once a month or less in cooler months. Can survive on rainfall alone in most Australian climates once established.
    🌱 Fertilising A single application of diluted, low-nitrogen succulent fertiliser in spring is optional. This plant rarely needs feeding.
    📏 Mature Size Individual rosettes reach 5 to 10cm wide. The plant spreads indefinitely over time as it produces offsets.

    🎨 Colours Green rosettes flushed with rosy pink, deepening in cold weather or full sun.
