Re: Echeveria ID please
Hi,
This was what was known as E.subrigida for quite some time, but is not the true subrigida.
The true subrigida is not so farinose and IMHO not as nice.
This is in fact Echeveria cante

Especially interested in Mesembs. small Aloes and South African miniatures and bulbs.

Re: Echeveria ID please
The BCSS Journal in March 1998 has an Echeveria article, with pics of both subrigida & cante (p8), with comment about the confusion between the 2. Cactus File Vol 1 No 3 (Nov 91) gives similar info. Both articles are by John Pilbeam
