| I agree on Echiveria. I will check the four places where I placed orders for sempervivums to see if I can find it or a label sounds familier but everyone keep posting, something will ring a bell. |

| Not really but I will check Fred out on google. WOW it sure is close. I also found Elegans which I remember, but there are many desert plants in that catagory. |

| I'm in the Echeveria camp, similar to this one, popular in stores the past couple years: https://www.google.com/search?... 👀😁😂 - SMILE! -☺😎☻☮👌✌∞☯🐣🐦🐔🐝🍯🐾 The less I interfere, the more balance mother nature provides. 👒🎄👣🏡🍃🍂🌾🌿🍁❦❧ 🍃🍁🍂🌾🌻🌸🌼🌹🌽❀☀🌺 ☕👓 The only way to succeed is to try. |

Personally, I think that it's a cross between the two, perhaps graptoveria. It's beautiful, whatever it is.  I'd like to find one like that. |

| I am sure I bought it online from either Youngs, Mountaincrest or Simply Succulents. |
