DESCRIPTION

Introducing the Sempervivum 'Café', a hardy and visually captivating succulent hailing from the mountainous regions of Europe. This particular variety is celebrated for its distinctive rosettes, which showcase a mesmerizing blend of deep mocha tones edged with vibrant green, reminiscent of a freshly brewed cup of artisanal coffee. The leaves are thick and fleshy, arranged in a tight spiral, giving the plant a robust and textured appearance.

Sempervivum 'Café' thrives in rock gardens, green roofs, or as a striking addition to a succulent collection, reaching a modest height and width of around 4 inches. Its ability to produce multiple offsets ensures a gradually expanding cluster, creating a lush, ground-covering tapestry of color and form. Not only does it add a unique aesthetic appeal to any setting, but it is also incredibly resilient, tolerating a range of harsh conditions including drought, frost, and poor soil.

As the seasons change, so does the allure of the Sempervivum 'Café'. Summer months coax out star-shaped, pink-hued flowers on tall stalks, adding an extra layer of beauty to its already striking foliage. These blooms are not only a feast for the eyes but also attract a variety of pollinators, adding life and vibrancy to your garden space. Once established, this succulent requires minimal care, making it a perfect choice for both novice gardeners and seasoned horticulturists alike.

Whether nestled in a cozy container on your patio or making a statement in your garden landscape, the Sempervivum 'Café' promises to bring a touch of elegance and intrigue to your outdoor space.

PLANT SIZING & APPEARANCE

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!
