{"product_id":"sempervivum-oddity","title":"Sempervivum 'Oddity' - Hen \u0026 Chicks","description":"\u003cp\u003eSempervivum '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.\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 10px 4px 0; vertical-align: top; white-space: nowrap;\"\u003e📐 Current Size\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding: 4px 0;\"\u003e5 cm across (May 2026) \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"font-weight: bold; padding: 4px 10px 4px 0; vertical-align: top; white-space: nowrap;\"\u003e☀️ Sun\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding: 4px 0;\"\u003eFull sun to partial shade.
