Mama Hen

taken:

I picked up some hens & chicks this spring. I'm excited to see what becomes of them. So far there are several "baby chicks" sprouting. This is "mama hen". Isn't she beautiful! I love her variegated petals from green to deep red. Each petal has a fringe of tiny little spikes making it appear mighty and sheltering. Possibly mama's way of protecting her brand new baby chicks? :)
