That looks right to me. It's a pretty variable species.

Very variable as to the amount of axillary hair produced. Some very woolly some not so, but all still M. hahniana being just natural variation.

The old original forms staying single stemmed until fairly tall and old before offsetting, but some of the newer forms freely offsetting whilst young and clumping.
