Sempervivum 'Oddity' - Hen & Chicks

    Low Stock

    Sempervivum 'Oddity' is aptly named, producing one of the most unusual leaf forms of any Sempervivum. Unlike the flat, smooth leaves of most Hen and Chicks varieties, 'Oddity' has leaves that are tubular and quill-like, rolled lengthwise into cylinders and tipped with a green or red blush. This gives the rosette a spiky, otherworldly texture that stops people in their tracks. It forms tight rosettes and multiplies readily, creating a dense mat of its striking, distinctive form.

    📐 Current Size 5 cm across (May 2026) 
    ☀️ Sun Full sun to partial shade. The reddish tips are most vivid in full sun.
    ⚠️ Toxicity Non-toxic to humans, cats, and dogs.
    💧 Watering Very low. Every 2 to 3 weeks in summer, monthly or less in cooler months.
    🌱 Fertilising Rarely needed. A light application in spring is optional.
    📏 Mature Size Rosettes 5 to 10cm wide. Spreads via offsets to form a mat.
    🌿 Difficulty Very easy.
    🎨 Colours Green tubular leaves with red or bronze tips, becoming more vivid in full sun.
    🛡️ Disease Resistant Excellent.
    🏜️ Drought Tolerant Excellent.
    🔥 Heat Tolerant Good.
    🪨 Poor Soil Excellent.
    📝 Additional Notes Frost hardy to well below freezing. A real conversation starter and a must for any Sempervivum collection. The unusual tubular leaf form makes it one of the most distinctive succulents available.
