The list of Houseleeks is almost endless, this lovely easily grown reddish variety is one of the best. Soon bulking up to sizeable mounds it is complimented by starry pink flowers in the summer. Prefers a sunny well drained site, the poorer the soil the better the colour. Excellent for both containers and the alpine garden.
