I always thought this was echeveria elegans 'Mexican Snowball' but the pictures I look at the tips of the leaves are always pointier than mine. It looks more like some sort of echeveria pulidonis or pearl echeveria.

Question

If someone knows for sure or if I'm in the right ballpark, your opinions would be appreciated. I'm trying to learn more and all the variations are extremely similar. Thank you.#happyplants #plantsmakepeoplehappy #plantaddict #succulentlove #newplantmom #plantid #whatplantisthis

@vvvelo or @TidyTigerpear is the one to ask about succulent id

@Catplantaddict · Answer

@vvvelo it has pointy tips in the picture. Just an observation.

@vvvelo · Answer

@Catplantaddict yes I agree with you , that is why I am not 100% sure 😉 Cuz it also looks like Pulidonis.

@vvvelo · Answer

@FairyFly and I also agree with you that it looks like pulidonis or even like Hercules. Can you take couple pics from the side?

@vvvelo · Answer

@FairyFly ok, now on these photos it looks more like Echeveria Monroe.

@TidyTigerpear · Answer

I have one similar to this that @vvvelo identified for me as a “Echeveria morning dew”

@TidyTigerpear · Answer

This is what I have it under. This one was hard to identify but I don’t think it’s a snow ball

@TidyTigerpear · Answer

Here are two I found that look similar to yours. When you look up Echeveria morning dew , many different Echeveria with a similar name will show up, so I included the photos of the ones I’ have found.

@TidyTigerpear · Answer

Yes there are so many types of Echeveria, they are one of the only succulents that I have trouble identifying.
