Sempervivum 'Commander Hay' is a captivating variety of Hens & Chicks, known for its striking rosettes of vibrant green leaves with hints of red at the tips. As a succulent, it forms dense clusters, with the central "hen" rosettes surrounded by smaller "chick" offsets, creating a charming and low-maintenance ground cover. In the summer, it produces star-shaped, pinkish-red flowers that add a burst of color to the plant’s otherwise bold foliage. Commander Hay thrives in well-drained soil and full sun, making it an excellent choice for rock gardens, containers, or dry landscape designs. With its resilience, drought tolerance, and unique color contrast, this variety of Sempervivum is a perfect addition to any garden looking for texture and visual appeal.
