Hen and Chicks (Sempervivum 'Red Rum')

Wow, watermarks galore!

How could a person NOT like 'Red Rum'?
And it is a tough semps in all seasons here in my Pacific Northwest garden in full sun.

Mine's not looking so red at the moment but does get very red in the summer. This one bloomed out in the middle and repair has been attempted.

Tim your repair is going to be beautiful come next spring. The colony looks great right now.

Not as red as the "performance" pics provided by Lynn, but Tim, I think your colony looks good, but everybody knows I have lower standards as I like green

I need to go out and get a current photo of 'Red Rum'. Bet mine look much like Tim's right now.
Bev this is the time of your you should really love 'Red Rum'.
