Please find for sale 100+ Sempervivum mix seeds - a collection of some of the best cultivars of these pretty succulents. These are very small seeds so I will mix them with sharp sand to facilitate getting the seeds out of the packet and "sprinkling" them evenly. This easy to grow succulents  are most valued for their fascinating rosettes of succulent, spiral patterned foliage, although they also have pretty flowers from spring to summer. These are really low maintenence plants as they require very little wattering or feeding. They thrive in sunny spots in well-draining compost. They can be grown outdoors  in containers and rockeries but depending on where you are, may need some winter protection especially from waterlogging. Alternatively they can be grown all-year round as house plants.
