Twit, what would be the best way to make sure this surviving Sempervivum 'Raspberry Ice' makes it to adult status?
The plant bloomed and died, this very tiny offset is up on the dead bloom stalk with now way to root into the ground.

HELP!!!

Gently separate the offset from the rest of the plant and replant it so that the base of the offset is in contact with the ground. I would make sure it is in a location that I see every day. In my case, plants in a "critical" state are planted in a small pot and placed on a table on the back porch where I pass every day. I like to use small pots for these, then water gently (or mist) a few times a week. The small pot allows the plant to dry a bit between watering's, so chance of rot is minimized. Check daily. The plant in the pic looks really healthy, so should make a full recovery.

I did as you directed. Here it the baby one week later. Already looking like it's thinking of growing. I placed it on the soil close by where the parent rosette was.


This is what it grew into.

Looks nice, Lynn. Sorry I missed the original post.

I'm glad you found it now. I could share how well your suggestion worked.
