@KelsiBriana It did! Sorry I’ve been MIA for a while. I don’t have a great picture unfortunately 😔 but they were beautiful little yellow blooms. Hope you’re been well, Kelsi!

@KelsiBriana seeing pictures of your moon fairy a while back, i thought the same thing! it is strikingly similar besides the edges 🧐

Wow, that is vibrant. It's a match though, the blue-green coloration and indents near the tips of the leaves are a big tell. I vote moon fairy. @KelsiBriana

@Soja412 thanks! ahh i love their name too... it’s kinda funny that ‘alfred’ is a synonym. not quite as whimsical!

DonNotDonny

@Soja412 It's nothing, they're just easy to pick out when you've worked with them for as long as I did. Yeah, Alfred is the official name, but no one calls it that really. It's named after the friend of the discoverer. The full name of Alfred was "Alfred H. Waltemyer", which personally I'm glad they shortened for the plant.

5.6.18 #plantid #succulent #growthprogress i labeled this 'claire' but i'm very unsure! the edges are pink, perhaps pulidonis? but the leaves are longer than i'd expect...

@KelsiBriana thanks kelsi! i'll label it as such for now because that's certainly closer if not totally correct

The red edges make me think of Echeveria Pulidonis but I don't think that's right.

Looks kind of like a #pachyveria-powderpuff. I could be so wrong. Just throwing my 2 cents @lissoms
