Sempervivum Pacific Blue Ice Andropogon with glaucous green foliageSempervivum 'Pacific Blue Ice' is a 1998 release from Oregon plant breeder, Gary Gosset. The nicely offsetting 4" wide rosettes have a silvery blue color, that's overlain with rosy red as the temperatures cool in fall. We have found this to have excellent garden performance in the hot, humid, southeast US. This is often marketed as Berry Blues hens and chicks.
