Titanopsis ID

Post by causticjay »

I have a Titanopsis plant and am trying to identify the species - based off of pictures I have seen I believe it may be a T. luederitzii or T. primosii, but I'm not sure. Also, if I remember correctly, different varieties have different growing seasons and therefore need different conditions - hence why I want to identify it correctly. Thank you for any help!

Looks like a T. primosii to me

T. luedertzii is really just a form of T. primosii,
primosii is usually looks like your plant, green with raised white dots
luedertzii is more of a yellow color with smudged dots

Some of the primosii look more like Aloinopsis luckhoffii.
I think that they are named either primosii or luedertzii depending on where they are found in habitat

T. luedertzii is probably a little more sensitive, but both species are easy to kill
