Autor

Kevin Vaughn has been breeding and growing Sempervivum since he was nine years old. From his hybridizing work, he has introduced about 80 cultivars to the market, including the award winning "Lipstick" and "Jungle Shadows." These early experiments in plant hybridizing led to a PhD in botany and a career with the USDA. Since moving to Oregon in 2010, he has organized a yearly "Hybridizers Clinic" and produces from 4-6,000 new seedlings each year from his breeding efforts.
