I need a little help in identifying the species of this Peperomia (I cannot exclude it being a hybrid of some sort as well). I have two guesses, but neither match perfectly, so maybe it's something else...

Re: January: Graphic
Graptopetalum filiferum, Batopilas (seeds Köhres 5132), I must say they really took off this winter! I will try to take a zoomed in photograph of one of them later as well.

Re: Pest control
On a separate note I was going to buy a bottle of the Bug Clear Ultra Vine Weevil killer to use as a soak for root mealies but I'm wondering if its now just the same as a bottle of Bug Clear Ultra 1 but relabelled.

The other thing I remember most about my visit was a bunch of (British) geriatrics dressed up in ponchos and sombreros, as a Mexican band playing music (I suppose for the tea room). Reminds m...

Re: Where to buy half pots online...
I have some black square 20 x 20 x 10 cm pots spare I got by mistake from Czech Republic, but would need to do some maths to take all the costs incurred (international postage etc.) into account. Should come to maybe a fiver each, I can send the details later today if you're interested.

Re: Importing seeds from the EU to the UK
Looking for something else I was surprised to find this dated January 2023. Have regulations changed since January and was this correct at the time? https://www.necps.org/bring-your-cactus-with-you-on-your-trip-to-the-uk-everything-you-need-to-know-about-taking-a-cactus-on-an-airplane/ This is disc...
