Wait until the offsets are mature before removing them from the parent
plant.

Removing them and replanting them will help them to form a colony faster.

I recently bought a single pot of an exquisitely colored Sempervivum
tectorum,
with about a dozen offsets surrounding the parent plant. Is it worth
removing
some of these and repotting now? Will this hasten growth in any way, or
is it
best to leave these as is to form colonies unaided? (I may want to try
some in
the ground, but with our cold rainy spring, I'm not too anxious to
introduce
new succulents even in my relatively well-drained garden.)

Thanks....
best,
Tyra
