I absolutely love sempervivum have several hundred myself in my collection. These Giants in prevails from chick charms are definitely not the largest ones I've ever seen either. When I was a child there was is an older lady that raised them and crossed some of her own she had some that were every bit of 12 inches across which I do have photos but sadly none of the plants. That was about 15 years ago. They didn't have no color like these though they were just green with dark burgundy tips.
Yes I'm addicted. I admit this. Sempervivum is my addiction. I'm so excited about growing these new Giants. Chick Charms is top notch plants. Hard to find these in NY but I'm trying
Honestly they look awful. They lost all their beauty growing taller. I had one and very soon all leaves built up super compressed and when I transplanted it they popped up like a ball so the roots didn't even touch the soil. It's like having living stone plants as big as an Echinocactus grusoni, it doesn't make any sense. If nature made them as they are there is a reason for that.
Sempervirens ? Is that a new name for the giant ones ? They’re cool ! Now I must have these ! Haha ! I probably have 150-200 of them 🤣
I cannot wait to get these!!!!!!❤

In “full sun?” Probably not in Texas when it’s 105 to 115! Just sayin’!
