外見

The Houseleek is a succulent plant featuring thick, fleshy leaves arranged in a tight rosette. Its leaves are typically green, often tipped with reds or purples, and sometimes appear fuzzy. It visually differs with its distinct "hen and chicks" growth pattern, where smaller rosettes sprout around the main plant.
