-About Sempervivum 'Stansfieldii'-
Sempervivum 'Stansfieldii,' called houseleek, is a low-growing succulent with fleshy, radially growing leaves, spatulate or long obovate. The blade tips are slightly curved inward, with a white tomentum on edge. It has small star-shaped flowers in summer, in red, white, and yellow, and the central leaves wither after flowering.
-How to care for Sempervivum 'Stansfieldii'-
Sun/Location: The plant needs full sun in the spring and fall, while it requires moderate shade during the summer. Insufficient light will cause the plant to be loose and uncompact, negatively affecting its ornamental appearance. In contrast, plants grown in full sunlight will have thick, full leaves, giving the plant a remarkable impression.
Soil/Pot: Soil matching, peat mixed with perlite with cinder, roughly 1:1:1 ratio, to isolate the plant and soil surface contact, but also to be more breathable, you can lay on the particles of clean river sand, river sand size 3 to 5 mm.
Watering: Before watering, wait until the top layer is dehydrated. Avoid water pools in the basin, which will cause root rot, and avoid the soil getting too dry. Although the plant will not die, the growth is slow, produce dark leaves, and lack vitality.

Shipping
We pack all shipments by hand.
We have many years of experience shipping live succulents and cactus plants. We pay close attention to packing and have developed an expert shipping method. All succulents are packed and protected with polypropylene cotton (this is a stuffing used for dolls). We find this is the most effective material for protecting live plants while in transit. It is important to us that you are able to Keep going and Keep growing without any stress about the quality of the product or packaging.
Shipping Speed
In general, it takes 3 to 10 days for plants to arrive after you place your order. All orders will be shipped out 48 hours after you place them. We ship the orders on work days(from Monday to Saturday) and all year round. In normal conditions, it will take 3-10 days for you to receive the package.

EXTREME WEATHER NOTICE: The Next Gardener reserves the right to hold shipments during storms or periods of extreme heat or cold. This is to ensure your plant does not suffer while it is in transit.
Winter shipping
We insist on shipping succulents to our customers all year round. However due to the extreme winter weather, although we pack succulents with as much protective material as possible, plants are still at increased risk of frost on their way to colder areas. We highly recommend adding one 72-hour heat pack to your order or you can request a hold on the package until it warms up.
Please note that The Next Gardener is not responsible for packages that suffer cold damage without a heat pack. We cannot control the weather. Order at your own risk.

Fortunately, shipping is available to Alaska, Guam, and other U.S. Territories. However, due to numerous factors beyond our control, including customs checks and shipping delays, free shipping to Hawaii and Puerto Rico is not an option.
