    •   Sempervivum 'Cornelia' is a captivating houseleek succulent that belongs to the hardy alpine plant family. This drought tolerant succulent originates from mountainous regions of Europe where it naturally thrives in rocky, challenging conditions.

        Sempervivum 'Cornelia' forms stunning rosettes with thick, fleshy leaves that display gorgeous burgundy-red edges against green centers. This rosette succulent develops a clustering growth habit, creating beautiful colonies of hen and chicks as it matures. The leaves have a smooth texture with pointed tips, and each rosette typically reaches 3-4 inches across when fully developed.

        Sempervivum 'Cornelia' produces delicate star-shaped flowers in summer, typically in shades of pink or white that emerge on tall stalks above the rosettes. This alpine succulent tolerates dry heated air and handles balcony wind and rain exceptionally well. The plant survives 10-day trips alone and maintains its vibrant coloring even in challenging outdoor conditions.

        Sempervivum 'Cornelia' excels as a low maintenance plant for rock gardens, containers, and outdoor succulent displays. This cold hardy succulent needs rotating for even growth and handles drafty spots that challenge other houseplants. Rock garden enthusiasts prize this frost hardy plant for its resilience and ability to stay outdoors in autumn. This plant is pet friendly, making it perfect for households with curious cats and dogs.

      🌵 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.
