I nabbed this in early winter. It has come up from the dungeon for the growing season. However, they're a bit more beat than they were. I can take them apart and replant. But for the plants that have nearly become spherical. Should I remove leaves at the yellow line to plant them flush with the soil or try to keep a long stem and plant a ball?

Urban, I assume by "spherical" you mean the rosettes at the top of the container that has the older light green leaves? If so, if it was me, I would pull those rosettes out and see how long the stems are for that bunch of rosettes. I would probably cut the stems maybe below the green leaves (even if the roots are below the targeted stem cut). With all that stem and root out of the way, I would gently pull (twist) the light green leaves off the remaining stem(s) and leave the rosettes with newly cut and de-leafed stems to callous for a couple of days and and then replant so growth of new roots could start to happen. I would put the bottom of the newly cleaned up colored rosettes flush with the soil.
A little but of dressing between the leaves and soil would help stabilize while the growth of new roots occur. In the meanwhile keep out of the sun until rosettes have time to develop new roots.
I would also separate some of the more mature offsets from the mother rosette and plant those into the pot while you wait for the older rosette stems to callous.

Awesome. Thanks!

Great advice Bev.
