I understand Topsy Turvey‘s like to multiply, but its gotten so heavy she’s tipped and grown out of the pot and over it but only to the one side- she hasn’t outgrown the entire pot, she’s just decided to grow…stupidly. Do I repot her in a larger pot, remove the crest? (If so How do you repot that?) or just leave her because she’s happy but somehow stabilize it?
Please note she’s between waterings that why she’s a little crispy.
Edit: I was not expecting to get this much positive feedback and I realize now I may have been looking at her as a leaning problem to solve rather than appreciating what I had as something beautiful that I should be proud of. Thanks everybody for your kind comments!!

You should definitely repot this and share with your succulents lover friends 😁😁
I think she amazing. Definitely repot. I’d leave the crest intact. But it’s up to you. If you do take the crest off just plop it in some dirt it’ll grow roots and thrive. But I’d leave her just the way she is. Beautiful!
Send her to me 🙂
I personally wouldn’t repot. Clearly she is thriving. Just add some good soil mixture to cover up the roots. Repotting always stresses a plant.
I’d be tempted to remove the big single head so that it doesn’t compete with the crested portion. It can be its own plant! 🙂
You have several options to consider and they each have valid reasons. Whichever you choose take good care of them as they’re nice to see! Good luck and good growing!
Unfortunatley there’s only one option here. Ship her to me 😪
Mine has been so hard to grow. I did end up cutting the top off and it went through about six months of not loving life, but now it seems to be doing better. I do have to water her every week. Otherwise she gets really temperamental and her bottom leaves dry out.

Okay, but how does this look JUST like a taco!? Does anyone else see it?

i came by to say so beautiful and healthy looking.

Fantastic looking plant
Give yourself a medal; that is absolutely gorgeous. Then perhaps a slightly larger pot.

That is some killer cresting! 😍😍😍😍
