I don't think that is E. derenbergii, but E. nodulosa (probably) 'Painted Beauty'

One in between would be perfect, but if I had to choose one you can probably guess which one I would say. The blue one duh;). JK the one on the right is the one I would use. Next summer you will be able to transfer to the blue one.

Thanks Kara, I was thinking the smaller one and then repotting when it's much stronger.

I was even thinking of beheading when I do it. It's pretty stretched out. I've just done that to 2 others that don't matter as much, so if they survive that's the plan ; -))

Thanks rina. Was wondering after searching here for the botanical name and someone here (maybe you) said that the E. derenbergii has a red dot at the leaf tip. I'll do a Google image search for both. Ta :-)

I am quite sure it wasn't me suggesting it may be E. derenbergii- that is very different plant; it could have red tips but your plant doesn't - your plant has stripe pattern. The growth pattern is very different too.

Btw, E. nodulosa (your plant) often grows taller stem than most echeverias.

I agree, one on the right looks best, most Echeveria do not have extensive root systems and take ages to get pot-bound. And just to echo what Rina said DO NOT behead this plant - this is normal growth for this species.

Pot size looks just right to me.

Yep looks good to me too. Think about the roots. They would have been swimming in the other pot:).

I would have gone with the same pot size. I believe his one is an echeverias nodulosa like someone already ID. They don't have the regular habit of a echeveria that has a tight rosette. It's between a rosette and the habit of echeverias harmsii.

Thanks everyone. I've got a few leaves to propagate now too. I pulled one off the bottom that was shriveling, another came off when I was repotting and another came loose. All the rest are firm. So I'm hoping that I'll end up with a few babies hehe :-D

The color of the pot and the "painting" color of the plant look nice together.

I would have gone bigger. Then can be fast growers only slowing to bloom. Oh well- no big deal,when it grows more you can always go larger.

Sorry Ryan didn't notice you'd included number 6 in your comment at the top (even though I'd checked to see if anyone had mentioned it). I would have worded it differently.

Plus I keep posting this and it won't work coz my Internet reception is in and out at the moment. So I hope this works.... no it didn't, but I've copied it and keep trying.

Been trying to answer, comment, say thanks to things said etc.

Anyway just after midnight, so might be better at night. Here goes......

Nope.

2am down the street?

Yaaaaaaaay! Woo hoo
