Hens and Chicks Details
Hens and Chicks are minuscule succulents that draw huge attention to themselves because the foliage grows in a shape that resembles a fully-bloomed rose. These beautiful plants are also super resilient to most forces of nature they might encounter.
They can grow from 4 to 8 inches in diameter with leaves that offer a glossy, smooth look and pinkish edges. The foliage can grow up to 6 inches tall. Hens and Chicks also provide your yard with blooming flowers that come in spring and early summer. These flowers can emerge in yellow or red!
Hens and Chicks Basic Care
This succulent can handle full sun exposure but does best with some shade in the day, especially in regions that get temperatures above 90° Fahrenheit. Once established, this plant can be watered deeply as little as 1-2 times a month all year long.
They are also extremely easy to maintain – a perfect starter plant for beginner gardeners! More advanced gardeners will love to utilize Hens and Chicks in existing landscapes for some truly unique designs.
Hens and Chicks Landscape Uses
Because of its unique appearance and small stature, this succulent looks amazing almost anywhere. It will surely spruce up an existing garden, a small deck, a windowsill planter, or patio landscape décor.
Due to their size, they are great options for areas of your yard that might need the extra texture to your other plants. Hens and Chicks also look gorgeous when planted in rows or used as borders. When planted in groupings, their spiral-like shape will mesmerize your family and friends.
