Sempervivum arachnoideum Details

Sempervivum arachnoideum, commonly known as Cobweb Houseleek, is a smaller succulent grown for its foliage and interesting ‘fluff’ that resembles cobwebs. It grows as a mat of fleshy rosettes with leaves that are typically green and covered in cobweb-like, white hairs. During cooler periods or in times of moisture stress the plants may develop purple tones. Small, star shaped, pink flowers are borne on short stems in summer. Each rosette is typically 10 cm tall and 15 cm wide, but it will grow wider over time as more rosettes are produced. Best results with this succulent are achieved when it is grown in full sun on a well-drained, frost-free site. It is tolerant of extended dry periods. Sempervivum arachnoideum is commonly grown in a container or included in rock gardens.
