These are more of the plants that arrived without labels. I thought I'd matched them up with the list of of plants I ordered, but I'm not confident I got it right. I have a lot of leaf cuttings because leaves fell off during shipping and these are doing well, so when I label them up individually I don't want to be copying the wrong name onto the new labels.
In particular I got 2 different Adromischus alstonii and 2 different A. hemisphaericus, and one called A. aff. roanianus that I've struggled with. One died and all I have left is leaf cuttings, so I haven't posted a picture of that.
I think this is hemisphaericus?

Both the hemisphaericus I ordered had field numbers, well, one had 2. CR1311/DT6190 was apparently a plant without spots on its leaves, and CR1533 (clone 4) was apparently a spotty leaved plant. This is the one I think is the other, spotty, hemisphaericus:

I think this next one is alstonii and the one that rotted was the other; that one had leaves without spots. They both had a locality, but it was the same one for both, West of Naip.

I think this is aff. roanianus/roaneanus:

I also ordered an Adromischus marianae 'Tanqua' that had a different leaf colour than I expected but obviously leaf colour varies a lot so I'm not sure if it is still correct.

This has an interesting double leaf. I have spotted these on a few plants. Are they common on Adromischus?
Thanks.

Re: More Adromischus with mixed up labels
Hi CathyM,
I'm afraid your plants are still too young and not showing mature characters to enable identification. Please post new pictures in about a year's time.
That A. m. "Tanqua" looks correct though.
Best wishes,
DT

Re: More Adromischus with mixed up labels
Thank you for the ID of 'Tanqua', I will post more pics of the others when they have more leaves! I assume that if they flower next year the flowers are useful for identification?
