A different type of runner?
Hey #Echeveria people, can you clue me into what’s going on here? I have this echeveria which I adore, but it really really wants to reproduce. It throws out these little rosettes all the time, and the little “not really leaves but I can’t remember their name” fall off if you so much as look at them funny. And even sitting on the counter, each one throws out four-ish roots looking for soil. It’s madness.
Anyway, I noticed a bit ago that I have three of these runners that were clearly more dense than the ones I’m used to. Just tighter packing, more points. I figured they were flower stalks and let them be. Today, I realized that they’re not growing up like I’d expect flowers to, but they’re actually curving down more than the usual runners do.

@slayonium bracht, that’s the one, thank you. So, anything worth reading into the different stalks seeming so different from each other, dense versus not so? I’ll let these develop to see what’s what. I guess I’m used to echeveria stalks being a little more assertive than these, e.g. attached
@Charli3Plant I’m going to let those go and see how they develop. If they’re flower stalks then this little gal has been flowering almost constantly like I’ve never seen before, and it’ll be interesting to see what it does
@PlantAgenet117 oh wow - I got this echeveria in a seed mix, so I don’t know what it is (and it could be an open pollinated hybrid), but images of echeveria prolifica are a close match!
