I grow all the plants in these photos--long-term relationships best described as détente.
Tawilis is an endangered species. WTF.

It will abort the grand opening out of direct sunlight, I think.
GET AN OFFICE-PORTABLE SUN! lol

Give it a bit of time to get a bit warm. There is a clump of the same plant in our yard that came from a single seed that some bird dropped. I found the seedling and moved it. They do this in late spring, then keep at it all summer.

lol this is an awesome plant.

It's probably about to bloom, if it happened that fast. Sempervivums are monocarpic so that one rosette will die when it's done blooming. Needs direct sun for the smaller rosettes to produce chicks.

Thank you! I'm glad I can continue to mostly ignore this one.
As an aside, I experiment with pots as well and mostly stay away from glazed ones--no patience to learn it. Maybe for taro.
I've tried pumice pots, too; but they took up so much winter space I had to ditch them until I depopulated a bit.

I was hoping you'd say that. It's just that it has sprouted an offset after a severe crushing injury. I wondered if I can just leave them alone.

Greetings. How deep a pot do they need? I have a diffusa that has been in a mug since 2015, I've been wondering if I should move or leave it alone forever.

Huh. I didn't see that. I got stuck in glassy bubbles.
