Sempervivum 'Pacific Purple Shadows' quick care tips

Watering

Sempervivum 'Pacific Purple Shadows' is a drought-tolerant succulent variety, so watering around once per week in the peak growing season is advised. Ensure the soil dries between waterings following the 3 Ds: drench, drain and dry. It is also advised to completely stop watering when conditions are frosty, keeping the plant dry for several months at a time over winter.

Feeding

Sempervivum 'Pacific Purple Shadows' likes to be fed to bring out its best forms and colours. We recommend feeding with a liquid seaweed feed every 2 weeks in the main growing season from April to September.

Ideal soil

Sempervivum 'Pacific Purple Shadows' needs free draining soil to thrive. We recommend a mixture of 1/3 John Innes no.2, 1/3 perlite and 1/3 coconut coir. The soil mix we offer here is similar in composition to this.

  • Choose a pot with a drainage hole if you can’t limit the watering (outdoors). A pot with no drainage hole can be used as long as you water moderately. A pot with a hole tends to be more forgiving. Also, as it is slightly breathable, a terracotta pot is usually preferred over a plastic pot, but the succulents dont seem to mind too much.

So Superior Succulents

I was dazzled by the immense quantity of succulents on view. Unfortunately many were sold out and our Canadian dollar seems a bit, um, flimsy against the British Pound. But now I know about Surreal Succulents, I will breeze by another time. Janet
