Hey, I've recently gotten into succulents, started with just a few and now I'm up to over 30 different plants (what happened..?).
And while I've identified most all of them, some of them I'm having difficulties with. Worst are the rosette shapes, which there are so many of and I could use help with identifying.
The attached pictures are the ones which I don't know the names of and I'd approved all the help. If better pictures are needed, I'll be happy to take some new ones.
TIA

Re: Succulent ID
I'll make a start...
Top row is Echeveria Perle von Nurnberg, Sempervivum arachnoideum (or one of its cultivars/hybrids) and Echeveria agavoides.
Bottom row is Aeonium, probably one of the purple leaved arboreum cultivars, then Crassula ovata. Next another Echeveria - possible another Perle but doesn't look quite right for that - maybe a different cultivar or gibbiflora metallica; underneath that another Sempervivum, no idea which cultivar.

Re: Succulent ID
I'm in general agreement, although I think the one in the middle at the bottom may be Cotyledon galpinii (a much smaller plant than the Crassula).

Re: Succulent ID
The Crassula seems to have the leaf shape and thinness of Crassula arborescens ssp undulatifolia. It is not blue as is normal but could be a green form or had the farina rubbed off.
Obsessive Crassulaceae lover, especially Aeoniums but also grow, Aloes, Agaves, Haworthias and a select number of Cacti.

Re: Succulent ID
Thank you all so much! The crassula does seem to be Crassula arborescens ssp undulatifolia when compared to the images from Google, even with the lack of blue. It doesn't seem to have any sort of coating. I'll add some extra pics of the still not so clear ones, perhaps it'll help with the identifying.
