Chick Charms Sugar Shimmer forms tightly-packed rosettes of pale green with pale pink tips all covered in silver-white hairs that sparkle in the light like crystalized sugar.

Sempervivum are super hardy requiring only full sun and excellent, sharp drainage, especially in coastal BC. Grow them as an edger for pathways or borders or in pots.
