Succulents grow quietly only to surprise me -- new pups and buds hidden between leaves, perfectly geometric shapes, etc. They're addictive ❤

Seeking advice. This Aeonium Suncup used to be healthy and vibrant, but now rosettes are tiny and branches are too long. How can I make it attractive again? The branches are very thin, so they don't look suitable for propergation.... TIA

Has it had plenty of water during the growing and active parts of the year?

@richard.spicer.7906 since it's downunder here, it was warm for the last couple of months and the plant seemed to have gone dormant. So, I cut down water. Maybe I did so too much😥

Very thin but hard stems. They look ok, I think.

@Muzz67, @Yollymac, thank you so much for the ID! On another topic, I'm struggling to find the way to learn how to correctly pronounce these plant family names like 'aeonium' or 'graptopetalum'. Any idea for videos or TV programs?
