Notes

'Gold Rush' rubikon hens & chicks (Sempervivum 'Gold Rush') is a succulent for borders and containers, and it needs little care. It is hardy to USDA zone 2, or down to -50°F (-46°C). This plant likes full or part sun and dry, sandy or loamy soil. Deer and rabbits tend to pass it by. It needs sharp drainage, so grow it as an edger for pathways or borders or in pots. Pink blooms attract butterflies and bees.

Pairs well with Biting stonecrop, Myrtle spurge, and Hens and chicks.
