I found the original growing on trees in a secluded spot in cloud forest. It grew well from cutting which ended up in hanging baskets. It apparently spreads by wind blown seeds as this past year I found it on a lichen covered rock in my garden.

This appears to be Echeveria australis. Tropicos.com lists it as native from Honduras to Panama

Very nice. It's great it is spreading like that for you.

I went to Tropicos.com and it was a beauty products site. Must be a typo for the site you went to.

My error, thanks for catching it, It is .org, not .com

That is very cute, especially among the lichen.

Many of the local plants I research, both cactus and other, can have a surprising lack of information available especially considering that they were named and published a century ago. According to an online journal
https://www.crassulaceae.ch/uploads/fil ... 202018.pdf
many mesoamerican echeverias have been misnamed over the years.
My orange flowered plant may be E pittieri and most or all identifications of red-flowered E. australis in Nicaragua may be errors.

Margrit Bischofberger was kind enough to Id my photos as

While I am on the topic I might as well post these photos from a plant my wife bought unlabeled at a local nursery. A friend who is knowledgeable on native flora Identified it as E. guatemalensis. He has a site location in the mountains to the east of us so when the covid spike here settles down I hope to arrange with him to go there and get some habitat fotos and cuttings. I then need to download the description from the above site and study both the wild and nursery plants. Fotos are of plant in flower and plant with flowers drying. I need to get fotos of the seed pods in case this turns out to be an identifiable specimen.

Found another one growing on trees in cloud forest. I took some cuttings and hopefully it will flower this year so I have a chance to ID it. Literature says there are 3 species native to Nicaragua, E. australis, E. Pittieri, and E guatemalensis, plus possibly E maxonii.

Really gorgeous plants and flowers, love how they coexist with the mosses.
