Thumb of 2016-05-20/dirtdorphins/49a772


hey all-- I stopped by the nursery the other night where I have purchased semps (and naively and negligently thrown the tags away). There was a fresh 'shipment' if you will, from the local guy who sells his offsets there and I have some ids now for some of the semps that previously came from him--Yay!

I can't figure this one out though,
arach. in the lower left corner is a dead ringer for a pot he had there labeled as 'Webby Flame'
it looks just like his and kinda like these others
what do you all think?

I see our db entry is spelled wrong Sempervivum 'Webbi Flame'

here is a pic of what it looks like when it is significantly 'less happy' these are from the same original semp colony, just extracted out from under the other plant that was covering them up...

I also have a vague recollection of purchasing something with 'flame' in the name because I thought it sounded neat...

all that being said, it kind of looked like a match for a pot he had there labeled as 'Stansfieldii' too, which I see is the parent plant, and in looking at crappy pics I took with my phone to compare...I can't be sure

Dirt at this time it is difficult to tell which it might be. Can you continue taking photos through this growing season?

@JungleShadows Kevin is this semp by Ed Skrocki spelled 'Webby Flame' or Webbi Flame'?
Also do you know if it is seedling of 'Stansfieldii'?

I remember it as Webbi although I haven't seen it in the old catalogs that I've gone through. Will continue checking.
