How to care for Sempervivum Giant Gold Mine ('GGM2022') (PBR):
Plant or pot up using a loam-based potting mix with added grit for optimal drainage, watering moderately during growth and sparingly during the cooler months. Apply a balanced liquid fertiliser monthly during the growing season to support healthy growth. Remove spent plants after flowering to encourage new rosette formation. Leaf colour is dependent on temperature and light, so may intensify or soften at different times of the year.
