Description

The listing, 200 "Hens & Chicks" Succulent Seeds (must see pics!) has ended.

Easy to grow and maintain. Limitless creative planting options. Hardy, fast growing, indoor or outdoor, pretty ground cover or use as a unique potted accent in any garden or yard.
Some of the pics are of the ones I have grown myself. I love Succulents, I've been planting & collecting them for years. They are very interesting looking and super easy to grow. You can plant them virtually anywhere, regardless of the climate.
200 seeds will cover up to 2 square yards if planted directly into the ground. However, remember to use proper spacing in between each seed because as they mature they will need ample room for the chicks. If using for ground cover, I would spread them out a bit more that just 6 square feet, as they will eventually become very crowded.
They are an AWESOME decorative plant! Can be grown and kept both inside & outside. Great for beginners or even the most novice gardener.
The last 2 pics are of one that I planted 2 1/2 months ago. Would be twice the size by now if I had put it in the ground instead of a small pot. I will try & take some more pics to show better examples of the growth rate.

all non-toxic, animal and pet safe. drought resistant, cover plants during snow or heavy frost.

it really isn't that difficult, trust me! I know growing anything from seed can sound a bit daunting at first, but as far as this plant is concerned- it's actually very simple. if you've already had success in propagating them (as you stated above), then you'd definitely be more than qualified to grow them from seed :)

Those are all great questions, unfortunately to much info & not enough room to list here. I will add a couple of websites that will answer those questions.

I will add some great websites that can answer that question better than I can. There are a few different variables, and I hate to give you the wrong information. I will add the websites shortly in "updates".
