Sempervivum 'Cosmic Candy' is a captivating, low-growing succulent known for its vibrant, rosette-forming foliage. Each tight rosette features pointed leaves flushed with rich burgundy tones at the center, fading to green or silvery tips, often with a subtle cobwebbed texture. The color intensifies with seasonal shifts, giving this variety year-round interest and charm.
Extremely drought-tolerant and cold-hardy, 'Cosmic Candy' thrives in gritty, well-drained soils and is perfect for rock gardens, troughs, green roofs, and container arrangements. It multiplies easily by offsets, forming dense colonies over time. Low maintenance and deer-resistant, this variety adds bold color and structure to any sunny, dry location.
Sun Requirements:
Full Sun. Requires at least 6 hours of direct sunlight daily to maintain its compact form and vibrant coloration.
Maximum Growth Height:
2–4 inches (5–10 cm), forming tight rosettes that slowly spread to form a mat-like groundcover.
Bloom Month:
June to July. Mature rosettes produce star-shaped pink flowers on tall stalks before naturally dying back, with offsets continuing the display.
