{"product_id":"sempervivum-gabrielle","title":"Sempervivum 'Gabrielle' - Hen \u0026 Chicks Succulent","description":"\u003cp\u003eSempervivum 'Gabrielle' is a gorgeous Hen \u0026amp; 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ctable style=\"width: 100%; border-collapse: collapse; margin-top: 12px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"font-weight: bold; padding: 4px 12px 4px 0; vertical-align: top; white-space: nowrap;\"\u003e📐 Current Size\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding: 4px 0;\"\u003e5-6 cm across (May 2026)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"font-weight: bold; padding: 4px 12px 4px 0; vertical-align: top; white-space: nowrap;\"\u003e☀️ Sun\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding: 4px 0;\"\u003eFull sun to partial shade.
