I'm excited about your trade Kate. Hurray! And what a lovely roller you have in that first post.
Here is some information on the correct name of it.
J. hirtum ssp. adenophorum, syn is J. preissiana. Here is a link to the entry in the database. And look, we have no photo of it yet. Whistling

Mark you can put J. hirta 'Hedge Hog', S. 'Pink Pearl' or h. 'Torrid Zone', if you want to shorten a name for tags. And that would give your customers a correct name of their succulents. Hurray!
Rolling on the floor laughing Rolling on the floor laughing Except you will have to put your plant names on the tags, not mine. Rolling on the floor laughing

All rollers are Jovibarba, not sempervivum.

This is where we can get into so much trouble with incorrectly named plants. If we aren't quite sure as to the correct name for a plant, it needs to become just a
Jovibarba, sempervivum or heuffelii, which ever applies.
I had to add a couple semps to the NOID area today. The Blue Jay has been busy. Thumbs down
