Hens and Chicks, Chick Charms Giant, Emerald Explosion

Emerald Explosion Giant Hen and Chicks earns its name with exceptional vitality—spreading rosettes of vibrant green that multiply rapidly, filling in groundcover areas with a dense, living carpet of overlapping rosettes in the Chick Charms Giant scale. The larger rosette size creates an impression of abundance and energy that standard hens and chicks can’t quite match, making this an especially effective mass planting choice for rock gardens, sunny slopes, or container combinations. Yellow flowers rise above the green mounds in summer, and the foliage stays a consistent rich green through all four seasons, making it a reliable neutral backdrop for other colorful plants. Drought-tolerant, deer and rabbit resistant, and cold hardy to the core, it handles the most challenging conditions without complaint or special care. Its spreading nature means it fills space enthusiastically and requires only occasional thinning if kept in a defined area. One of the most generous spreaders in the sempervivum world.
