  •   Sempervivum 'Larissa' is a cold hardy succulent belonging to the Crassulaceae family, bred from mountain-dwelling European species that naturally thrive in rocky, alpine terrain. Like all hens and chicks, Sempervivum 'Larissa' forms tight rosette clusters that multiply readily, making it a rewarding and easy care addition to any collection.

      Sempervivum 'Larissa' produces compact rosettes in rich rosy-red and green tones, with fleshy, pointed leaves that develop warm honey and orange blushes depending on sun exposure and season. The upright, clustering growth style means each mother rosette steadily pushes out offsets, filling containers and garden beds with a dense, textured carpet of color.

      Sempervivum 'Larissa' needs a night temperature drop to trigger blooming, a natural cue this hardy plant relies on after its first year of growth. Beyond flowering, the bold color shifts and tight rosette architecture are outstanding features that make Sempervivum 'Larissa' a standout in any drought tolerant planting scheme.

      Sempervivum 'Larissa' is a genuinely tough plant built for outdoor life, thriving on patios, in rock gardens, alpine troughs, and container arrangements. It can move outside for summer, handles balcony wind, and stays outdoors well into autumn thanks to its impressive frost tolerance. This plant is pet friendly, survives a 10-day trip alone without watering, and tolerates dry heated air indoors during winter, making it exceptionally versatile for both home and garden growers.

  •   Sempervivum 'Larissa' thrives in bright indirect light but tolerates both direct sun and low-light conditions with ease.

      Water Sempervivum 'Larissa' deeply every 2-3 weeks in summer, reducing to once a month or less in winter.

      Sempervivum 'Larissa' performs best in a gritty, fast-draining mix of cactus soil blended with extra perlite or coarse sand.

      Sempervivum 'Larissa' tolerates temperatures from around 65-75°F (18-24°C) indoors and is frost tolerant down to well below 0°F (-18°C).

      Sempervivum 'Larissa' grows at a moderate pace and needs no regular fertilizing, making its basic care requirements genuinely minimal.

      Sempervivum 'Larissa' is hardy in USDA Zones 3-8, tolerating frost well below 0°F (-18°C), which covers a vast stretch of the United States. This includes Alaska, Montana, Wyoming, North Dakota, South Dakota, Minnesota, Wisconsin, Michigan, Vermont, Maine, New Hampshire, New York, Idaho, Colorado, Utah, Oregon, Washington, Iowa, Illinois, Indiana, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Connecticut, Rhode Island, Massachusetts, New Jersey, Delaware, Maryland, Virginia, West Virginia, Kentucky, Missouri, Kansas, Nebraska, and more. Gardeners growing Sempervivum 'Larissa' in any of these states can leave it outdoors year-round with little to no winter protection needed.

    🌵 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.
