Sempervivum Ronny is a cultivar bred by Gustaaf v. d. Steen from Belgium in 1977. This houseleek forms clumps of medium-sized, velvety rosettes with colouring ranging from light apple green to orange-red tones. The colour expression changes during the year according to the seasons, giving the rosettes a variable appearance.
It is best grown in a sunny position in a well-draining, mainly mineral substrate, where long-term waterlogging must be avoided. It is suitable for rock gardens, dry stone walls and containers with drainage, and tolerates year-round outdoor cultivation. The plant is monocarpic, meaning the mother rosette dies after flowering, but it produces new rosettes beforehand, ensuring the continued growth of the clump. Thanks to its velvety foliage and variable colouring, it is a valuable addition to any houseleek collection.
