Sempervivum 'Royal Ruby'

Embracing the regal elegance its name suggests, Sempervivum 'Royal Ruby' is a captivating succulent that hails from the mountainous regions of Europe. This plant is a true gem in the succulent world, with its tightly packed rosettes showcasing a vibrant display of deep ruby red and green hues that intensify under the stress of sunlight. The leaves are thick and fleshy, tapering to a fine point, and during the summer months, 'Royal Ruby' further dazzles with the emergence of star-shaped, pink flowers on tall stalks, adding an extra layer of allure to its already striking appearance.

Reaching a modest size of about 4 to 6 inches in both height and width, 'Royal Ruby' makes a bold statement without overwhelming a space. Its compact growth habit and resilience make it an ideal choice for rock gardens, green roofs, or as a ground cover in drought-tolerant landscapes. When potted, this succulent forms a stunning, dense cluster that spills beautifully over the container's edges, creating a dramatic "spiller" effect that catches the eye.

Not only is Sempervivum 'Royal Ruby' a visual masterpiece, but it is also incredibly easy to care for, requiring minimal water and thriving in well-draining soil. Its ability to withstand cold temperatures makes it a versatile addition to gardens in a variety of climates. Whether you're a seasoned succulent collector or a beginner looking to add some low-maintenance beauty to your garden, Sempervivum 'Royal Ruby' is a choice that promises to enchant with its royal charm.

Plant sizing is based on the diameter of the nursery pot (2", 2.5", 3", 4" etc), not the plant itself. Plants may be slightly larger or smaller than the pot they are grow in depending on availability or time of year. While we do our best to ship plants as similar to those pictured as possible, please keep in mind that all plants are unique from one to the next, and display color, shape, and growth variation based on current environment, time of year, and other contributing factors. Please note that we ship our plants as dry as possible in the fall and winter months to prevent root rot or freezing. They will plump back up after planting!
