With Harry on the Aeonium, probably arboreum but I'm less sure about that. I'm not suggesting harry is wrong just that I am no Aeonium expert :wink:

Hello :D
Very nice looking plant you have there. I checked for your plant in a succulent book that I just got and it really seems to be some type of Aeonium. It is really hard to tell which specific type it is, here is a link with a lot of different types of Aeoniums:

I also saw a plant that looks similar but perhaps with leaves a bit more succulent and lighter in color. Anyway, here is the link:

Sedum palmeri

Just out of curiosity, how do you water the one that's hanging on the wall? :)

Astar,

I really think that the one on the right hand side is a cultivar that we call Aeonium Kiwi. It appears to have color, yellow and red tips in the leaves. This color is relative to the amount of sun that it gets. Full sun means a lot of color and less means mainly green. It may well be a selection from A. haworthii or A. gomerense (they get mixed up a lot) made in New Zealand some years ago.

The one on the left (the wall flower) is probably a form of A. canariense.
