Sempervivums, the iconic houseleek, are once again working their magic and are making a welcome return to our gardens, as people realise that they are a real easy-to-grow and keep plant. They really are fascinating, low-maintenance perennials and come in range of colours. Also known as hen and chicks because the freely produced offsets gather around the mother plant in much the same way as chicks around a mother hen. Houseleeks form rosettes of colourful, fleshy leaves and are low growing, making them extremely popular as a living carpet of green and the perfect candidate for making into displays - hence why they were so popular in landscaping in the 70's. These succulent plants are winter-hardy, drought-tolerant and will take a roothold in the narrowest of cracks - hence their common name, as they were once used to plug gaps in leaking roofs. As a bonus during the summer, the mature rosettes throw out spikes topped with star shaped flowers which insects love, plus they produce offsets, or new plants, every season that are simple to separate and grow as new specimens. Really easy to grow and a favourite with kids, Sempervivums require a well-drained soil in full sun, tolerating drought when established. Here, we've preplanted a concrete 'log' with a selection of types to give you an instant display. Supplied as a collection of 4 plants in a 36cm concrete log. Please note that varieties may change throughout the year, depending on availability.
A native of the tropical regions of South America, Peperomia make wonderful houseplants in the UK. Peperomia 'Raindrop Feel Green' is a striking, compact variety with beautiful dark green, glossy leaves which loves bright and warm conditions and appreciates additional humidity either from regular misting or by standing in a tray of wet pebbles. The heart shaped leaves have a lush, succulent look to them and as 'Raindrop Feel Green' is naturally compact and only grow to 30cm, it's ideal on a desk or windowsill, away from direct sunlight. As the plant matures it produces unusual and interesting looking flowers that look a little like mouse tails, but Peperomia is grown mainly for its wonderfully attractive leaves. Slow growing in very easy to care for, it'll need virtually no maintenance apart from the removed of faded leaves and flowers, and regular feeding and watering. Supplied as a potted plant in a 14cm nursery pot, growing to a height and spread of 30cm (1ft).
