I purchased some more of the plant and this time was lucky enough to find someone who was bit knowledgeable and told me it was Graptopetalum paraguayense.

Will do a trial to make sure he's right and the plants purchased have the property I am interested in.

Anyone feels the ID is incorrect please let me know.

Have cut up the original plant as well. From what I have found, the best conditions for rapid growth are light or dappled shade and half strength foliar spray.

Any other thoughts would be appreciated.

Cheers

Later:
Should have done this first.

Searched Garden.org and given flower color of the plant originally purchased, the original plant had a yellow flower but quite different for the one shown here, as there were five petals with a black stripe on the midrib area. Kick myself for not photographing it.

Back to the drawing board.

Graptosedum ghosty has yellow blooms while graptopetalum has white blooms
