Detailed Information

Hen and Chicks, specifically the *Sempervivum* genus, are native to **mountainous regions of Europe and parts of Asia**.

Therefore, *Sempervivum* ‘Lynn’s Rose Gold’ (being a cultivar of *Sempervivum*) would have its ancestral roots in those regions. While the specific cultivar ‘Lynn’s Rose Gold’ was likely bred in a nursery setting (likely in a temperate climate), its genetic heritage traces back to those European/Asian mountainous areas.
