Echeveria id please

Post by savant »

I have had these Echeveria for some time and all I've put on the label is Echeveria sp.
The bottom one I'm sure is Echeveria but it could be something else and the 1st & 2nd are both the same but one is a close up. I think it may be Echeveria agavoides but not certain. Then again is it an Echeveria?

The last one could be Pachyveria glauca "Little Jewel"

So it wasn't an Echeveria after all. I sort of had that feeling it wasn't. Thanks very much Triiiangle.

I'm not an expert on the genus, but the first one does look like an E. agavoidies. People seem to go nuts over various cultivars of that species (most notably Ebony), but who knows it could come full circle someday and plain green will be the "it" variety!

I was looking through a list of Echeveria one day and it said by the side of one like mine that it was Echeveria Green.
When I put Echeveria Green in Google it came back with a species called E. species green so I think that's what the label will say. STOP - I have made my decision, I am going to label it "Echeveria Hybrid"

I dunno, take a look at this page - Echeveria agavoides. Looks an awful lot like it.

I originally put E. agavoides when I first bought it but I wasn't sure. As I haven't done the label yet I can soon do it.

The green one i have and it won't stay long and flat leaved for long, with good light it will turn a reddish hue on the green, the leaves will pack closer together into a nice rosette with red little spikes on the top of the leaf!
My favorite Color is lime green so i got it and to my surprise it didn't stay green lol!
