Yes I'd like to see a pic of it, Aaron.
I'll try to find the link in which many are pictured, with their latin names.
It was an excellent site.

If you drink, don't drive. Don't even putt.

Barb I really have to find one of those Echeveria. Very nice.

John, I'll divide one for you.
Let me know when you're heading this way and I'll pot it up.
Here's a link with many names.

Here is a pic, but after looking close up I may be wrong?

Here's to all the global warming pushers, may your winters be -30 below and four feet of snow in your driveway. Because I want you happy.

Aaron,
that's cool!
doesn't seem to resemble any pictured on the Echeveria link I provided.
But it could well belong to the family, despite the "hollow tube" stems, which my other Echeveria don't seem to have.
Now I'm curious what yours is.
Were the tip ends fried from winter?
deer? rabbits?
BTW, other than "hens and chicks" none of mine are hardy, but it's really easy to plant them out in spring.
No special care (treat like cactus). Then in fall pot them up into an unglazed clay pot. Easy. Keep dry but sunny.

Barb,
The ends are fried from cold. It has not gone through a winter here yet. Just a hard freeze from this spring. They said it is good to zone 5, but we will see. 😉

Aaron,
I hope the "ends" recover, as I'd guess rot could occur if water gets in there.

Barb,
I don't think they are very deep, it is just the tips that are hollow. 😀

I am starting to think it may just be a fancy form of hens and chicks. 😕

Instead of hen's 'n chicks, maybe it's the roosters, with all that stuff sticking up 😆 😆 😆
