Chick Charms® Strawberry Kiwi Hens & Chicks or Sempervivum add year-round color and texture to a planting. Thick foliage comes to a point and grows in rosettes, giving these plants a symmetrical look. The bold red foliage features hints of greenish-yellow near the center, creating a striking contrast. These plants are evergreen, so they continue to provide a burst of color all year. The foliage turns a deep mauve during the winter.

The colorful foliage sets the Chick Charms® Strawberry Kiwi Hens & Chicks apart, but this beauty also blooms. Pink, star-shaped flowers bloom on top of tall stems during the summer. This mat-forming succulent can grow in zones 3 through 8 and will continue to expand year after year. Plant hens and chicks near the front of a mass planting, along walkways, or tucked into stone walls to ensure the plants stand out. Feature Chick Charms® Strawberry Kiwi Hens & Chicks in a container to display these beauties on a tabletop or railing and enjoy them close up. 

Chick Charms® Strawberry Kiwi Hens & Chicks Care

Hens and chicks grow in full sun to partial shade. These plants thrive in well-drained, poor-quality soil. Hens and chicks have shallow root systems, allowing them to grow in rock gardens or areas with limited soil. Sempervivum is drought tolerant and can sustain itself with rainwater. Only water during an extended dry spell.

Cut back the flower stalks when the blooms fade, and remove dead or damaged growth as necessary. Chick Charms® Strawberry Kiwi Hens & Chicks are cold hardy and can survive cold winter temperatures, but they need protection from extended wet periods and poor drainage in winter.

Chick Charms® Strawberry Kiwi Hens & Chicks Spacing

Chick Charms® Strawberry Kiwi Hens & Chicks will grow 2 to 3 inches tall and spread 8 to 12 inches. Space plants 6 inches apart to create a dense, full planting. Give the plants more space, and offsets will fill the empty areas with time. These plants have a shallow root system, and 6 to 10 plants can be featured in a 12-inch pot.

Plant Addicts Warranty - 1 Year (Extra Purchase Required)

We encourage all plant lovers to purchase the Plant Addicts Warranty, whether you're a new gardener or an expert. There are many variables outside of anyone's control that can cause a plant to die. Hungry animals, drought, poor soil conditions, over watering, diseases & pests are all good examples of what can cause plants to die. The Plant Addicts Warranty is a 1 year warranty protecting you from all of the unknowns and will replace your plant if something were to happen to it.

The warranty is purchased on a per plant basis and must be purchased at the same time as the plant(s). We will cover 100% of the price of the plant, but the warranty does not cover shipping costs. SImply let us know if your plant has died within 1 year of receiving it and we will get you a new one shipped out as soon as possible (depending on the time of the year and availability). We may ask for photos for documentation purposes, but we try to make the process as easy as possible.

Guarantee and Warranty

Plant Shipping

Below are some factors we consider when determining when to ship the plants depending on the timing of the order.

Winter to Early Spring

We ship only when it's warm enough to plant in your growing zone.
Sometimes plants aren't completely ready to sell and ship in early spring. We will wait until the plants are ready before shipping so you don't get a subpar product.
For Southern plants we will be able to ship much earlier than plants coming from our northern nursery.

Summer

If there is extreme heat we may delay shipping for a week or several weeks.
We review what areas the plants are traveling through as well as your location.

Fall into Winter

We’ll ship plants out all the way up to the end of the fall planting season!

Winter

Get your order in early to reserve your plants for Spring planting!

Once your plant is shipped you’ll receive an automated email with tracking information.
