Introducing the Cobweb Hens and Chicks, known as Sempervivum arachnoideum, which is a vibrant mat-forming succulent plant, that belongs to the Sempervivum genus. The Sepervivum arachnoideum has several other common names such as Cobweb Houseleek, Cobweb sedum, or Spiderweb Hens and Chicks because of its fine, web-like hairs that cover its leaves. 

The webs on Sempervivum arachnoideum, are actually a natural characteristic of the plant. These webs, made up of silvery-white hairs, serve a few purposes. They help protect the plant from excessive sunlight by providing some shade. The webs can help trap moisture around the leaves, acting as a natural insulation and reducing water loss. Additionally, the webs add a unique and visually appealing feature to the plant, making it stand out among other succulents. 

The Hens and Chicks plants form tight evergreen rosettes of fleshy, pointed leaves that are covered in silvery-white hairs, resembling a spiderweb. The leaves have a green or reddish coloration, depending on the variety. With a fast growth rate, it can grow up to 3 inches tall and 12 inches wide, which creates a beautiful, textured carpet-like effect.

Sempervivum arachnoideum crested is a unique variant of Sempervivum arachnoideum distinguished by its distinctive crested fan-shaped growth pattern.  

The Sempervivum arachnoideum flower blooms in late summer and produces tall flower stalks that rise from the center of the rosettes. The flowers are star-shaped and can vary in color, ranging from pink to red or even yellow. The monocarpic plant will produce numerous chicks before dying, with offsets or "chicks" around the mother plant's base after flowering. 

The Cobweb Hens and Chicks can be propagated through offsets or leaf cuttings. The offsets, which are the small rosettes that grow around the mother plant, can be carefully separated and replanted to establish new plants. Additionally, individual leaves can be removed and rooted to grow new plants. This succulent is relatively easy to propagate, making it a popular choice for plant enthusiasts. 

Remember, the Cobweb Hens and Chicks Sempervivum arachnoideum are generally considered non-toxic to both humans and pets. Sempervivums, like many cacti and succulents, require little maintenance once established and will survive near-total neglect.  

Watering Needs 

Like other succulents, the Sempervivum arachnoideum has adapted to survive in arid conditions, which means it prefers drier soil. It's important to allow the soil to dry out completely between regular watering to prevent overwatering, which can lead to root rot and other issues. Aim for a watering schedule of once every 1-2 weeks in the summer, during the growing season, and even less frequently during the winter months when it goes into a dormant phase. 

When watering your Cobweb Hens and Chicks Sempervivum arachnoideum, it's important to water the soil directly rather than spraying or misting the leaves. This helps prevent excess moisture from getting trapped in the cobweb-like threads and causing rot. Water the soil thoroughly until it is evenly moist, but avoid letting the plant sit in standing water, as this can also lead to root rot. 

Remember, it's always better to underwater rather than overwater your Hens and Chicks plant. These Sempervivum arachnoideum succulents are quite resilient and can tolerate short periods of drought. Observing the leaves can also give you an indication of when to water. If the leaves start to appear slightly wrinkled or feel soft, it's a sign that your Hens and Chicks plant is thirsty and could use a drink. 

Light Requirements 

When it comes to growing Sempervivum arachnoideum indoors, they thrive in bright, indirect light. Place them near a south or west-facing window where they will get plenty of sunlight throughout the day. If you don't have access to a lot of natural light, you can also use artificial grow lights to provide the necessary light intensity for the plant. 

If you decide to grow your Sempervivum arachnoideum Cobweb Hens and Chicks outdoors, they prefer a spot with full sun to partial sun. These plants can handle direct sunlight, but they may appreciate some protection from intense afternoon sun, especially in hotter climates. A location that receives 4-6 hours of sunlight per day is generally ideal for their growth and color development. 

It's critical to remember that during a heatwave or periods of extreme heat, your Sempervivum arachnoideum could still sustain sun damage or get sunburned. You can protect the plant in this situation by moving it indoors or to a shaded area. 

Optimal Soil & Fertilizer Needs 

The Cobweb Hens and Chicks prefer well-draining soil that allows excess water to escape easily. A good mix for these succulent plants is a combination of regular potting soil and coarse sand or perlite. This mixture helps prevent the roots from sitting in too much water alone, which can lead to root rot. Planet Desert specializes in succulents and has specialized succulent potting soil that includes an organic substrate with mycorrhizae to help with the growth of a healthy root system to help your succulents thrive. As an okay alternative, you can create your own potting mix by combining equal portions of perlite, coarse sand, and good natural potting soil. 

The Sempervivum arachnoideum are generally low-maintenance plants and don't require heavy fertilization. In fact, they can do well without any additional fertilizers. However, if you want to give them a little boost, you can use a balanced (5-10-5), water-soluble NPK fertilizer diluted to half-strength. Apply the fertilizer sparingly, only once a year during the growing season, which is typically spring. Avoid fertilizing during the winter months when it is in a dormant phase. 

Remember that Sempervivum arachnoideum is native to rocky, mountainous regions, so replicating its natural habitat is key. Make sure to select a fast-draining soil with adequate drainage. As for fertilization, it's better to under-fertilize than over-fertilize, as excessive nutrients can cause the plants to become leggy or lose their vibrant colors. Always follow the instructions and err on the side of caution. 

Hardiness Zone & More 

When planted indoors, the Sempervivum arachnoideum prefers temperatures between 50°F and 65°F. They can tolerate slightly lower temperatures during their dormant period in winter. It's important to place them in a well-lit area, preferably near a sunny window where they can receive at least 4 to 6 hours of indirect sunlight per day. 

If you are living in USDA zones 5-8, you can grow your Cobweb Hens and Chicks outdoors in the garden, year-round. They are generally frost-tolerant and can survive temperatures as low as 20°F. However, it's important to ensure good drainage in the soil to prevent waterlogging during heavy rain or snow. 

As for humidity, they are adaptable and can tolerate a variety of humidity levels, from dry to moderately humid environments. It can tolerate average indoor humidity, but it's important to avoid excessively dry conditions. You can increase the humidity around the plant by placing a tray of water near it or by using a humidifier. 

So, no matter where you live, as long as you provide the right temperature, humidity, and Sempervivum care, your Cobweb hens and Chicks will be happy and healthy!

Excellent gentle creamy light foaming non-active cleanser - better than PC!
Size: 5 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
Oh my goodness I LOVE this cleanser! I already have and use Remedy deep moisturizing cream in the white bottle- it is an excellent basic, no actives, hydrating moisturizer that is perfect for post laser or if you have any flare ups and cannot use actives. Oily skin will not like it, it is too moisturizing and it will not absorb fast enough for you. Their lighter version will be better for you. My HG lip balm is remedy- it is like lip silk, stays nicely balmy and last for about an hour then dries down and my lips are still moisturized and I am not searching for my lip balm to rehydrate—- exactly what I want in a lip balm, especially after wearing a lip color that dried me out. My other HG lip balm is Mario b and perlier. For reference I greatly dislike Sara h and lanege. Ok so now you know what I like and what I do not like so you can better understand what I think of the product and how this might work out for you. This cleanser is perfect for both oily and dry because of how it goes from a cream to LIGHTLY foaming. I use PC ultra hydrating cream cleanser for years because it so creamy and leaves my skin soft, but I do need to cleanse 2x if I wore heavier makeup and/or sunscreen that day because it does not foam at all—- which is a very good thing for those with dry skin. The foaming agent can be too drying for many w/ dry skin. That cleanser has also went sky high in price to nearly double what it was 5 years ago. Here comes this new remedy cleanser, my new HG! Remedy has somehow found a happy sweet spot with just enough foam to get at the sunscreen and mascara, but is still nice and creamy that leaves my skin soft! It is also half the price of PC, which it should be because there aren’t any expensive actives in this to drive up the price! This is a GOOD thing in your cleanser. You do not need actives in your cleanser unless you are going to leave the cleanser on your skin for at least 10-15 min. Very rarely do I have time for that- I gotta get in and get moving. I’ll spend that time on my post shower skincare and hair are and maybe a quiet cup of coffee. This is hands down one of the best cleanser I have ever used. Someone mentioned they used the remedy cleaning balm first and then this cleanser it was fantastic together—- ty for that tip! I will be trying that!

Amazing Product and amazing price.
Size: 12 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
Remedy has done it again. This is an amazing face wash. I have all the remedy products now. I would highly advise if you are wanting to try Remedy but worry about cost. This product is a great start. It’s a very large bottle and feels so silky and smooth yet cleans and leaves your face ready for whatever you have planned!

Very hydrating
Size: 12 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I never liked foam cleaners, so I was afraid to try this one because it is a "cream-to-foam" cleanser. But it is not that foamy. I don't find it to foam at all actually. It lathers like a regular cleanser. I love it. I am slowly transitioning to all Remedy products. Trying one new thing every couple months until I have a complete Remedy routine that fits just for me!
