Wildish guess, maybe an aeonium?

Darn though, it almost looks like a Neoregelia (bromeliad) but isn't.

Ok changing mind...I do favor a bromeliad now vs aeonium.

Check out Aeonium 'Mardi Gras'.

Kara, that 's because it was cross posted to a FAQ forum. They were/are not intended to accept comments so nothing reads as having posted...except for you reading whatever comment you made. Just no one else can read them. Including the OP.

I previously suggested searching "aeonium propagation" and that these might not root from leaves.

Thanks everyone. I think gardengal48 is right and it's an Aeonium 'Mardi Gras' so I'll google how to propagate it ❤️

Those comments about cleaning up the FAQs are still believable, aren't they? I wish they'd allow us to do so.

I keep expecting to login and see a notice that the site is being shuttered (or maybe just 'site cannot be reached') one morning.

Did you ever see the Star Trek episodes where all the members of the space ship dissapeared one by one, and all memory of them was erased every time? 😬😢🤠

So no one can see my comment so I’ve copied it here. What’s the point of only me being able to see a comment?

I’ve heard that people have been able to propagate from Aeonium leaves, but I have yet to see it happen. I’m thinking the thicker leaved Aeoniums are easier to propagate with the leaves, for example someone was able to get a leaf propagation with their Aeonium nobile, which has thick leaves. Aeoniums with thin leaves like your Aeonium ‘Mardi Gras’ I’ve come to the conclusion there‘s just not enough resources in the actual leaf to keep the leaf alive for the amount of time and energy it takes to sprout roots or baby. They just shrivel up.

Be patient you’re little friend will start to eventually grow new rosettes. Aeoniums are winter growers so keep that in mind.

My Mardi Gras, but it was recieving more sun at the time.

Here’s my Mardi Gras today. One is about to bloom, they’re monocarpic. Which means they bloom once and die. The whole plant doesn’t die, just the actual rosette that bloomed.

Aeonium flowers are pretty cool. Here‘s a couple that should open in a couple wks.

You'd think with a name like 'Mardis Gras' it would have fat leaves. But maybe you have to pick them on a Tuesday in order to get them to root.

😄 Thank you so much Kara. Unfortunately that plant is outside a restaurant and none of my nurseries carry that variety. So I'll have to wait for a while 😕

I don’t know if you live in the states, but this variety of Aeonium is fairly common at Lowe’s and Home Depot.

Thanks! I'll try that : )

Teehee, Embo.

I am mourning my baby Aeonium tabuliforms. I had 11 self sown tiddlers which have survived two winters. Last week on one of the only chilly nights this winter they all went black. I'm desperately hoping they recover.

Aeonium tabuliforms are so tricky. I’ve lost three all at different times. I’ve taken a break from growing them;).

My original was absolutely fine for a few years and I didn't find it tricky at all. It lived outside and I basically ignored it. Then it flowered and consequently died. However, I found several seedlings coming up in surrounding pots and they were put into separate modules. Again they came through 2 winters untouched. There must have been just one freak night temperature which toasted them last month.

I could have sworn I answered this earlier. Must be on the other thread, wherever that is.
