Pink Sempervivum with Chicks succulents — also known as “Hens and Chicks” — are charming, hardy succulents from the Sempervivum genus, famous for their rosette form and colorful, often pink-tinged leaves. The name “Hens and Chicks” comes from the way the main plant (the “hen”) produces smaller offsets (the “chicks”) that cluster around it. 🌸

Here’s a detailed explanation:


🌿 Overview

  • Scientific name: Sempervivum spp.
  • Common names: Pink Sempervivum, Hens and Chicks, Houseleek
  • Family: Crassulaceae

🌸 Appearance

  • Forms tight rosettes of fleshy, pointed leaves.
  • The leaves have pink to rosy tones, especially under bright sunlight or cooler weather.
  • Each mature rosette (the “hen”) produces numerous small offsets (the “chicks”) at its base, forming a dense cluster over time.
  • Flowers bloom on tall stalks during summer, often in shades of pink, red, or purple.
  • After flowering, the mother rosette dies, but the chicks continue to grow and spread.

🌞 Light Requirements

  • Needs full sun to partial sun for best color and compact growth.
  • Pink hues deepen with more sunlight and cooler temperatures.
  • Indoors, place near a south- or west-facing window with strong light.

💧 Watering

  • Drought-tolerant — water sparingly.
  • Allow soil to dry completely between waterings.
  • Overwatering can cause root rot.
  • In winter, reduce watering to once a month or less.

🌱 Soil

  • Requires well-draining soil, such as a cactus or succulent mix.
  • You can also mix regular soil with sand or perlite for better drainage.

🌡️ Temperature & Hardiness

  • Cold-hardy – can survive frost and snow (some varieties tolerate -15°C).
  • Prefers cool, dry climates.
  • Ideal for outdoor rock gardens or containers.

🌼 Propagation

  • Very easy to propagate from offsets (chicks).
  • Simply separate the chicks from the main rosette and replant them in new soil.
  • They root quickly and start new clusters.

🪴 Care Tips

  • Avoid keeping the rosettes wet for too long; always water at the soil base.
  • Remove dead rosettes (after flowering) to keep the cluster neat.
  • Great for outdoor borders, containers, or green roofs.
