Looks like sempervivum probably sempervivum tectorum. Hardy little plants

Agreed. Not much care needed, aside from weeding.

Sempervivums are great and easy to look after! Not sure what soil you've got it in, but make sure its well draining as they can succumb to the dreaded root rot (particularly if you're keeping it outside in a potentially rainy place)

I hope the white fluffy thing near the center are not mealybugs.

The white thing looks like a dandelion seed with its wing
