Very astute observations, Rosemarie. I have noticed the same thing over the years. I had a K. blossfeldiana for twenty years that my great aunt must have had for many more, and the leaf sized varied even on that one. Of course with the hybrids like Calandiva there seems to be even greater variation than ever before. Christopher

To answer Jeff, wish I could tell from the photos, but can't. Since K. 'Tessa' is actually a hybrid, a cross of K. manginii and K. gracilipes, it will be possible to id the pictured plant, but it will take a close look at the structure of the flower. K. manginii produces plantlets on the inflorescence, not sure about K. 'Tessa'. Nice photos, bromelia 2010, and good question. Yale

The one on the left looks like a kalanchoe and on the right, an echeveria. I don't know your climate but I would grow them outside down here at 40º south of the equator. Just invert the saucer so the plant doesnt sit in water in the wet seasons and when the plant wants a drink turn it rightside up to capillary water.

Rhame, I apologize if you think I was disputing your I,D, That was not my intent of the post. I was saying I felt was a made up name from a vendor. I have grown both the variegated and non variegated. I think what the vendor/s did is when the variegation disappeared which has happened to my variegated one they called it Lavender Scallop because it did not have the white and just dropped the "variegata" part of the name. I never saw in my google search where there was a reputable developer of the plant being named Lavender Scallops without 'Variegata' as part of the name. I do not want to start a new discussion. I should never have Hijackedbrick's post I am sorry. It is a pretty plant regardless of what they call it to my eyes. Regardless of the name it is a very easy plant to root. brick6 you should not have any problems having lots of babies from your cuttings.
