Native to the rocky mountains of southern Europe and North Africa, Hens and Chicks, also known as Sempervivum, is a charming succulent that symbolizes longevity, protection, and connection. Its name comes from the way the central “hen” produces baby rosettes, or “chicks,” that cluster around the mother plant, forming a living, growing family. The fleshy, geometric leaves come in a variety of colors ranging from dusty green to deep burgundy, and their rosette form makes them feel like miniature botanical sculptures. Hens and Chicks thrive on minimal care, making them perfect for busy plant lovers who want dependable charm with a touch of storybook whimsy.
