This is a wild Sempervivum species native to the Alps in Europe, whose leaf tips are covered in fine hairs, forming a spun thread or cobweb-like appearance. It’s also called "Kumonosu Bandaiso" in Japanese, and in English, it’s known as the Cobweb Houseleek. Its scientific name, arachnoideum, comes from a word meaning “like a spider's web”(Japanese people likening it to a spool of thread—what great imagination!). This is a tough little plant that can withstand extreme cold. Maybe these cobweb threads act like a scarf, protecting it from getting too cold even when buried under snow… By the way, I suspect the plant sometimes called “Oreichoideum” is just a misreading of arachnoideum(though I’m really not sure…).
