| Maintenance | If your plants flop or opens up because of the growing conditions I have found that cutting the plants back 50% by the end of May will result in a more compact plant. Cutting down the stiff dead stalks in the late fall is a matter of choice. Some people like the dead brown plant for winter interest. |
| Propagation | Very easy from cuttings or divided in the spring. When dividing the plant be careful, the new stems are easily damaged. |
| Cultivar Origin | Found as a seedling of Hylotelephium Meteor at Monksilver Nursery UK. |
| Author's Notes | I have this plant growing in my garden and appreciate the compact smaller growth habit. During the spring of 2017 I lifted and divided the plants. Neighboring trees were creating to much shade and the plant was flopping. Will plant in a full, hot sun site. |
