  I remember a ground cover from my (very) younger days; my mom called it hens & chicks or something similar. Can anyone tell me its proper name, please? I can't seem to find it anywhere.

    hi, it is called hens and chicks. I couldn't it find at a greenhouse either when I was looking for it yers ago, I did snab a piece of it off a friend this year though.... I think I actually did see it maybe last year at canadian tire or the Kent garden centers.
