'Blue Ice' rubikon hens & chicks (Sempervivum 'Blue Ice') is a succulent for borders, containers, rock gardens, and ground cover. It is hardy to USDA zone 3, or down to -40°F (-40°C). This plant likes full sun and dry to average, sandy, loamy, or clay soil. Deer and rabbits tend to pass it by. It is evergreen and drought tolerant, so it stays easy to care for. Bees and butterflies visit it.
