My ice plant has really… taken off 😅 pic on the left is from May, right is today. I was expecting it to spread, not grow like a beanstalk. What do I do? Chop and prop? This is my first ice plant so I’d love advice! It’s in a succulent planter with a hens&chicks and a crinkle plant (that is also going crazy)
I’ve never had one of these, but I think chop and prop is up to your personal aesthetics. Whatever you like. I will say it looks like it wants more light… this looks like the start of etiolation

Ice plants don’t branch out much. But it is etoliated. It’s growing quickly because it’s searching for more light. If it’s not getting enough light, I’m sorry to say, but the other two definitely are not. Of the three, the ice plant needs the least light. The sempervivum needs direct sun. Sorry to put down your enthusiasm.
