These hardy succulents are sempervivums aka houseleeks. These are fully hardy uk natives. They want to grow in very gritty soil or sand or cracks in walls etc in full sun. People use them for green roofs etc. Totally tolerant of drought and being frozen solid in winter (though they prefer to be dry).
They make strong flower spikes in spring with pink flowers, which are good for bees etc.
They will make offsets and bulk up each year. Not touched by slugs or any other pests or diseases in my experience.
This trough of mine has seen better days and is getting a bit weedy so I was wondering about taking them all out and starting again. So I will have excess to give away if there is interest.
