Small rosettes of apple-green leaves have silvery-white web-like fibers. In summer the older rosettes send out thick erect stems bristling with scaly leaves and topped with clusters of pink flowers. A slow growing selection. Hens and chicks are one of the easiest perennials to grow as they are tolerant of heat and drought. Great for rock gardens, troughs, and walls. Evergreen.
