SEMPERVIVUMS—HEN-AND-CHICKENS 
Most attractive hardy plants for the rock garden or rock wall. 
The rosette-like thick leaves are fleshy and pointed. The small 
clumps slowly spread, filling pockets and rock crevices. Transplant¬ 
ing may be done at any time of the year. After flowering the 
mother rosette disappears but its place is taken by numerous young 
plants which may be separated and planted elsewhere. The flowers 
are borne in small panicles on short, fleshy stems, generally during 
June and July. Some of the blossoms are unusually attractive, but 
the plants are prized for their attractive rosettes of Hen-and- 
Chickens which attain a height of J4 inch to 3 inches according
