Looks like a hybrid to me.
Possibly with some E.agavoides genes
Especially interested in Mesembs. small Aloes and South African miniatures and bulbs.

Perhaps E. colorata as the other parent?

Perhaps a better photo would help, or when the plant is actively growing and has filled out in the summer.
The red tips to the leaves are typical agavoides. E.cuspidata var. zaragosa can also impart red tips to leaves. From what I have seen, E.pulidonis is more likely to introduce a pink or reddish edge rather than a point. If it produces yellow flowers, that would point to pulidonis as a parent. The yellow appears to be dominant in most cases.

I'll definitely supply a better picture soon.

Being a huge fan of the genus, , it is definitely not a Echeveria agavoides .
But obviously it's shape may of attracted me for that very reason. :wink:

No sign of flowers as that would of been helpful for us.
