"xG. ‘Bronze’ and xG. ‘Bert Swanwick’ are quite similar. The colour of the leaves is slightly different but the flowers are identical. That means the two hybrids are different clones most probably of the same crossing."

That blurb comes from the crassulaceae.net page which shows a series of photos of both XGraptosedum 'Bronze' aka 'Vera Higgins' etc and of XGraptosedum 'Bert Swanwick'. I have to say that mine has been variable on the color of the leaves depending on whether it was baking in full sun and I was forgetting to water it or depending on the time of year due probably to both sunlight length and temperature. Hard to know, but I'd be inclined to select mine as the 'Vera Higgins' clone based on the more reddish tint. I wonder if 'Bert Swanwick' ever got distributed outside Australia. The link:
