Asked for a cutting and got the whole plant. What do you think is it? Aeonium maybe or some crassulate?
Thanks for any help!

Aeonium?

Re: Aeonium?
If an Aeonium at all, than haworthii. It's so bushy! At first glimpse it looks like Euphorbia balsamifera. (Both plants from the Canary Islands)

Re: Aeonium?
It's definitely an aeonium since flowers are on dead stems. A. Haworthii seems to fit!Tofterigen wrote:If an Aeonium at all, than haworthii. It's so bushy! At first glimpse it looks like Euphorbia balsamifera. (Both plants from the Canary Islands)

Re: Aeonium?
Sedum palmeri seems to fit better.

Sedum palmeri was my first thought as well... however, the plant seems to be a bit too robust and I am also confused by the wooden stems.

Re: Aeonium?
I attributed the wooden stems to old age. The plant must be around 7-10 years old since it completely fills a 12" pot.eduart wrote:Sedum palmeri was my first thought as well... however, the plant seems to be a bit too robust and I am also confused by the wooden stems.
Most of the sedum rubrotinctom species found in nature here have hard wooden stems too.
Thanks for the reply!
