It's a Sempervivum hybrid with an S. arachnodeum in it.

Best place is outside in full weather and wind. (and not to hot)

It's a sempervivum, commonly called hens and chicks since the mother plant produces so many offsets or "chicks". I'm not entirely sure which species this is but the webbing on yours is lovely.

This plant always dies off after flowering so it's completely normal. Good thing you have all those offsets!

As already mentioned, it is hardy plant that grows best outdoors whole year round. It is monocarpic (terms hapaxanth and semelparous are also used) - it flowers once, sets the seeds and dies. It looks like it is outdoors?

Rina, those are fifty-cent words - thanks for the edumacation!

Jefffff...I am learning how to pronounce them correctly! and I won't remember unless I use them few times :) (probably many times!)

"ienkeardandea" is the term here

:)

Harry

Also they don't like to be too wet in winter as they can rot off, so of you can shelter in the colder months from rain they will thank you for it. They are happy outdoors in the cold just give rain protection

Harry - you don't make it easy :) - that is really difficult to pronounce!!!

hablu (Harry), that sounds Frisian?

Remise,

Yes!! It is!!

How on earth do you know? It's my home / motherslanguage.

groetnisse fan Harry

Harry: How else could I know unless I'm born/live there. ;)

I never learned how to write it though.

This is a very funny coincidence, especially on a forum like this.

And cue 'It's a small, small world'.

So, you two live near each other or is one of you no longer in your home country? What an absolutely delightful "coincidence".

Laticauda: I don't exactly know where Harry lives, but at least in the same province. I am however moving to a different province next year, because of my job. I shall keep coming back to visit family, it's where my roots are. xD

That could not be to far

Your Sempervivum (Arachnoideum, but unknown cultivar) isn't dead. Each flowering rosette will shrivel making room for the remaining rosettes to fill in.

It wasn't suggested that whole clump is dead - just the flowering rosettes (flowering plant/rosette actually dies).

Harry: dat is sawat trije kertier fan Makkum.

And that's all I can type up in Frisian. It's never far, that's true.
