Houseleek on a roof
The houseleek is the common name of a succulent plant of the genus Sempervivum. Translated from Latin it means "always living". It needs little soil and very good drainage. Here it is thriving between roof slates on Tyddyn Mihangel, a cottage to the southwest of Cilcain. Keeping it company looks to be a stonecrop, a type of sedum.
