Here is what I found out about S. 'Griggs Surprise' Named from Ronald Byles / UK /1958 after Mr. Grigg
'Grigg's Surprise' = (syn. 'Monstrosum', syn. COTYLEDON PERSICUM,
syn. UMBILICUS PERSICUS,
syn. ROSULARIA PERSICA,
syn. UMBILICUS SYRIENSIS) ... ? (?), 1900s ... SEMPERVIVUM CALCAREUM
So now that posses the question, it Griggs Surprise and Monstrosum the same plant?
I find nothing for S. 'Griggs', so I am wondering if Griggs and Griggs Surprise are the same plant?
Here is what Horst Deim has for photos and explanation.

And here is what he shows for Oddity. Very interesting.
Now all I need to do is learn to differentiate between Oddity and Monstrosum.
