Notes
'Royanum' common houseleek (Sempervivum tectorum 'Royanum') is a succulent for rock gardens, containers, borders, and low maintenance spots. It is hardy to USDA zone 3, or down to -40°F (-40°C). This plant likes full or part sun and dry to average, sandy or loamy soil. It stays evergreen, so it adds color all year. It grows in a low, horizontal form and blooms in early to late summer.
Pairs well with Maiden pink, Blonde Ambition blue grama, and Mugo pine.
