Hen and Chicks - Care

Care

Hen and chicks are popular in gardens for their varied and interesting appearance and hardiness. They are grown as container planting or in rock gardens. They do best in well-drained, rocky soil; if they stay wet, the outer leaves will rot. Although they do best in sun, they will grow in light shade.

Famous quotes containing the word care:

    Still, I am prepared for this voyage, and for anything else you may care to mention.
    Not that I am not afraid, but there is very little time left.
    You have probably made travel arrangements, and know the feeling.
    Suddenly, one morning, the little train arrives in the station, but oh, so big
    It is! Much bigger and faster than anyone told you.
    John Ashbery (b. 1927)

    The lifelong process of caregiving, is the ultimate link between caregivers of all ages. You and I are not just in a phase we will outgrow. This is life—birth, death, and everything in between.... The care continuum is the cycle of life turning full circle in each of our lives. And what we learn when we spoon-feed our babies will echo in our ears as we feed our parents. The point is not to be done. The point is to be ready to do again.
    Paula C. Lowe (20th century)

    We should take care not to make the intellect our god; it has, of course, powerful muscles, but no personality.
    Albert Einstein (1879–1955)
