Sempervivum Supersemp® 'Ruby' is a bold, jewel-toned cultivar that brings both elegance and resilience to the garden. With rosettes that glow in deep shades of burgundy and ruby-red, this hardy succulent changes hues with the seasons, often deepening in color during cooler months. Perfectly symmetrical and low-growing, ‘Ruby’ thrives in rock gardens, containers, green roofs, and even cracks in old stone walls, where its drought tolerance and cold-hardiness truly shine. Like all hens and chicks, it forms charming offsets that slowly spread into a vibrant mat of color, needing little more than full sun and well-draining soil.

The flowers of Sempervivum Supersemp® 'Ruby' are typically star-shaped and pink to reddish-pink in color. Like other Sempervivum varieties, they bloom on tall, fleshy stalks in mid to late summer. The bloom signals the end of life for the rosette that flowers (a natural trait of Sempervivum, known as being monocarpic), but it will usually have produced plenty of offsets—“chicks”—to carry on the legacy.

So while the showy ruby foliage steals the spotlight, the delicate pink flowers offer a fleeting but charming summer spectacle.

This living gem is ideal for gardeners who crave striking foliage with minimal fuss. Whether you’re curating a succulent collection, designing a drought-tolerant landscape, or just want a touch of ruby brilliance for your patio pot, ‘Ruby’ delivers lasting impact. Bring home Sempervivum Supersemp® 'Ruby' today from our shop and let your garden sparkle with this time-honored favorite turned modern masterpiece.
