Walk one foot into my house and it is apparent that I have a
never ending love for succulents. So Hen
and Chicks are a no brainer for my yard. These are hardy and rewarding because they
multiple and create little hen and chick colonies. They are also fun because you
can easily share them with friends.
This “hen” was given to me by a coworker last summer. Yes,
this is the same plant. Look how many
babies she’s had! As you can see, they change color quite a bit depending on the season.
I’m always dividing and transplanting them. This is an example of a tiny chick that I separated in the fall. Low a behold, this chick is now a hen, producing little tiny offshoots. When transplanting I try to include as much as the stem as possible. Then just bury the stem and water when you remember.
Just a few more.
