  •   Sempervivum Green Wheel is a cold hardy succulent belonging to the Crassulaceae family, native to the rocky mountains of Europe and Asia Minor. It evolved in harsh, well-drained terrain where it developed into one of the most resilient alpine succulents for sale today.

      It forms tight, symmetrical rosettes of fleshy green leaves that radiate outward like a wheel, earning it its memorable name. Sempervivum 'Green Wheel' spreads by producing small offset rosettes, called chicks, that cluster around the mother plant to create a textured mat over time. The leaves are plump and smooth-edged, holding a fresh green tone that looks sharp in containers, rock gardens, and borders.

      Like all hens and chicks succulents, it is monocarpic, meaning the mother rosette flowers once and then dies back while the surrounding chicks continue. A temperature drop in late spring or early summer can trigger blooming, with star-shaped flower clusters rising on tall stalks above the rosette. It is pet friendly and non-toxic to cats and dogs.

      Move it outside in summer or leave it outdoors through autumn; it handles balcony wind and rain without trouble. It tolerates dry heated air indoors and can remain in containers year-round. You can leave it up to ten days without water. It survives temperatures down to approximately -30°F.

  •   Sempervivum Green Wheel grows well in partial to full sun, needing at least four to six hours of direct light daily.

      Water it deeply but infrequently, allowing soil to dry out completely between waterings, roughly every ten to fourteen days indoors.

      Sempervivum 'Green Wheel' does best in a gritty, fast-draining succulent or cactus mix amended with extra perlite or coarse sand.

      It prefers temperatures around 65°F to 75°F indoors and is frost hardy down to approximately -30°F.

      Sempervivum 'Green Wheel' is a slow grower and needs only a light, balanced fertilizer once in spring to stay healthy.

      It is hardy in USDA zones 3 through 8, tolerating frost well below 0°F. It grows outdoors across the northern and central states, including Minnesota, Wisconsin, Michigan, North Dakota, South Dakota, Montana, Wyoming, Colorado, Nebraska, Kansas, Iowa, Illinois, Indiana, Ohio, Pennsylvania, New York, Vermont, New Hampshire, Maine, Massachusetts, Connecticut, Rhode Island, New Jersey, Maryland, Delaware, Virginia, West Virginia, Kentucky, Tennessee, Missouri, Arkansas, and the Pacific Northwest states of Washington, Oregon, and Idaho. It also performs in Utah, Nevada's higher elevations, New Mexico, northern Texas, northern Georgia, North Carolina, and beyond as a drought tolerant succulent for sale across a wide stretch of the country.

    🌵 For Succulents
    When your package arrives, you may notice a bit of loose soil in the box. This is completely normal during shipping.
    Please remove your plants from their packaging right away and follow the care instructions included with your order. Succulents prefer to dry out between waterings, so only water when the soil is completely dry.
    Succulents are resilient plants and typically recover quickly once they settle into their new environment. Give them a few days to adjust before placing them in direct sunlight, and avoid fertilizing right away.
