Some say S. chrysanthum is supposed to be a hybrid between S. arachnoideum and S. tectorum ( S. x fauconetti Reuter). This use of a name is most probably wrong.

S. chrysanthum Me-keyboa

S. chrysanthum is actually a synonyme for Aeonium leucoblepharum.

The Sempervivum Society Journal Volume 3 (1972), No. 2:

" ... appears to be a hybrid of S. arachnoideum and S. tectorum, and is therefore a synonym of S. ×fauconnetii Reut."

"chrysanthum" is Greek for "(having) golden flowers". This cannot apply to the cross between S. arachnoideum and S. tectorum.

It could be an old name for an Aeonium, as Renata suggested.
