It's a Peruvian lily (sometimes called a 'princess' lily), Alstroemeria hybrid. It is not a true lily but a fleshy rooted perennial - the clusters of tubers it produces are really water storage organs. Makes a great, longlasting cut flower.

Sorry I don't know for certain what it is, maybe an echeveria? What I do know is that it's very etiolated.....it needs much more light, Gill

thanks for a quick reply, im in New Zealand, it's our first month of summer here and was thinking about making the new cutting now to get the benefit of the summer for the new cuts, thoughts on doing it in summer or waiting until next spring? Interesting mention about sun exposure, looking for spots around the house to keep these new cactis around, i have a spot that get's early morning sun and stays there until late evening sun, another spot that get's direct sunlight only 12pm up to 6pm. And another spot that's got heavy growth that has filter light pretty much all day long with short instances of direct sunlight. Hard to find day/night cycles if you can shead any 'light' on these questions would be legend. Thanks in advance and for your help previously.

It needs good drainage. If there is no hole in the bottom of that cup there should be.
