Description
Hen-and-chicks (Sempervivum tectorum), a European alpine species sketched in my Maine backyard. It's from a family of plants that are known for photosynthesizing in a special way, keeping their leaf pores closed during the day to conserve water. Also: according to Wikipedia, it will protect my house from lightning, decay, and witchcraft.
