Update: There are three of these with the three leaf groups, and they are huge. The flower head is taking on the same pattern as the leaves, with three branches of buds on each level alternating the same way. The ends of the bud branches are normal though, with two branches alternating around a center branch. Still, it's 1.5 times the flowers of a normal head.
If this behavior is predictable, I should have 5 stems like this next year. I might just have to keep pruning the two parent plants each year to propagate more of them in the regular garden.
Too bad you can't propagate these from a single leaf like a jade plant - or can you? I almost got one to root last winter, and I might try a few leaves again this year. I'm thinking I could take a partial slice out of the stem with the leaf and have more success.
Also, some of the Oregon Stonecrop is planted, and I'm holding back two pots on the side in case of disaster. Looks good so far.
