Detailed Information

Sempervivum ‘Dea’, like most *Sempervivum* species, is native to **mountainous regions of Europe**. Specifically, they thrive in the Alps, Pyrenees, Carpathians, and other similar areas.

While cultivated varieties like ‘Dea’ have been bred and selected for specific traits, their origin traces back to the wild *Sempervivum* species found in these European mountain environments. They are well-adapted to rocky, well-drained soil and harsh, cold winters.
