Gee, the striations are harder to see on the green ones. I better get my magnifying glass and pick a good hour to pore over all the green ones I have...Thanks for sharing Janice!

Those are gorgeous Chris. I love the red line on the leave edges on rupicolum, and the colors in Emenent are so eye catching.

Don't forget the heuffelii. Both of these can show more distinct watermarks than these two photos are showing. I need to take more photos of them at that time.

Its a NOID, and its from either Bev, or Patty - sadly I thought I'd keep track but as it grows, and I've gotten more, I can no longer remember! I should have made a label! Shrug! I love my NOIDs, but I also like to keep track of where they came from!!! Thumbs up

It is a beauty, Greg!

I, too, love my NOIDS and some of them are better than my named varieties.

Some were from seed packets and some were from my early days(Edelweiss), when I threw the tags away. Blinking Blinking

Love all those. I have a hard time keeping names straight and keeping records of were they came from is too much for me. I'm not good with that. I think watermarks are one of my favorite characteristics of the sempervivum. Cant think of another plant that does that.

Thank you Bev. I love the heuffelii that have watermarkings. Most of mine do not have the markings, so the few that do really stand out.

Lovely green color Greg, and I see the wonderful watermarkings just fine.
