Gardening is like cooking. To improve, you need to be willing to make mistakes and experiment. Also, common names are garbage. Zone 9b, West Sac, CA.

I can't get a definite answer on this plant's ID. This is either #echeveriapulvinata or #echeveriaharmsii. It's also possible that the names are synonymous. So annoying. Isn't the point of using Latin names to prevent confusion?

@sn8kfarm, when I got it at Safeway, it was labeled as #EcheveriaRedVelvet

Not too sure about the ID. Online research yields inconsistent results. Some say harmsii, some say pulvinata, others say they're the same cultivar. In any case, this beauty is getting more good-looking as it matures.

Thought I'd post another pic of this jewel now that it's been repotted. And with way better light!

Spotted this selling for $10 at Safeway. I think I managed to let 24 hours pass before I bought it. Isn't my willpower impressive?
