'Doeskin' lives up to its name, with leaves which are soft and lustrous. Lovely colours. Bred in the USA by Edward Skrocki (1990) - who, uniquely, used to transport trays of his sempervivums to garden centres in the back of a hearse. We are pleased to be able to offer this lovely sempervivum or houseleek - commonly known in the USA as "hens and chicks" - to UK enthusiasts.
