This captivating succulent is renowned for its unique rosettes adorned with fine, white, spider web-like hairs, making it a standout choice for any garden or indoor display.
Features:
- Unique Appearance: Cobweb Hens & Chicks features small, tightly packed rosettes that are typically green but can take on shades of red or purple, especially under stress or in bright sunlight. The delicate, cobweb-like filaments that span across the leaf tips give this plant its distinctive and intriguing look.

- Seasonal Blooms: In the summer, Sempervivum arachnoideum may produce clusters of star-shaped, pink flowers on tall stalks, adding a burst of color above the cobweb-covered rosettes.
Care Instructions:
- Light: Thrives in full to partial sunlight. Indoors, place near a bright window with plenty of indirect sunlight.
- Water: Allow the soil to dry out completely between waterings. Water thoroughly, ensuring good drainage, and avoid letting the plant sit in water.
- Soil: Use a well-draining succulent or cactus mix to prevent root rot.
- Temperature: Prefers temperatures between 60-80°F (16-27°C). Protect from frost and extreme heat.
- Fertilizer: Feed with a balanced, water-soluble fertilizer diluted to half strength during the growing season (spring and summer).
