Sempervivum
'Fire Dragon' is a hardy, low-growing evergreen succulent (hen and chicks) featuring striking silvery blue-green rosettes tipped in deep crimson or bright red. It grows 2 to 4 inches tall, spreads via offsets, and thrives in full sun and gritty, well-draining soil. 
Plant Characteristics
  • Foliage: Silvery blue-green leaves with bold, fiery red tips that intensify in cooler weather.
  • Size: Forms compact rosettes about 2–4 inches tall and spreads up to 12 inches wide in clumps.
  • Flowers: Small pink or whitish flowers appear on short stalks in summer; the main rosette dies after blooming, replaced by side offsets.
  • Hardiness: Extremely cold-hardy (down to USDA Zone 3 or lower).
  • Care Guide
  • Sunlight: Full sun (at least 4–6 hours daily) to maintain vivid leaf colors.
  • Watering: Low water needs. Allow the soil to dry completely between waterings; overwatering causes root rot.
  • Soil: Sandy, rocky, or gritty well-draining mix.
  • Uses: Perfect for rock gardens, containers, green roofs, and crevices
