Plant ID please?

Greg says this is a β€œShowy Stonecrop” but I veto that vote. Any help with this? My friend said she was told it was a Hatchet Plant, but also called it Elk Horn. Help? πŸ€·πŸ½β€β™€οΈ #PlantID #SucculentSquad #SucculentLove

This is Oscularia deltoides aka Pink Ice Plant.
It’s called oscularia deltoides - pink vygie…pink ice plant..I’m sure there are of bunch of other names lol
@GreenWitchRN I agree with @vvvelo on this. He’s one smart cookie on succulents.
@KikiGoldblatt πŸ€“πŸͺ🀣 I just have this plant in my collection ☺️
@vvvelo but your very knowledgeable on succulents tho. πŸ™ƒπŸ™ƒ
@KikiGoldblatt thank you! πŸ˜‰
Be careful with Greg’s ID -ing. There are quite a few generalizations and lots of misidentification. Just saying!
Very pretty succulent. I’m sure the blooms will be beautiful 😍
@Yeeha234 I agree. Almost every Echeveria Greg identifies as lipstick Echeveria
@vvvelo I have asked about it a few times and even offered my own services! Kiersten said I could correct other ppls by telling them. I did that a couple times and it didn’t go well. β€œWell Greg said it was xxx” veryyyy frustrating. Even pl@net is becoming riddled with ppl guessing and muddying the pool! Vent over
@Yeeha234 as long as we keep the positive vibes while helping both Greg and its community identifying plants, I think it’s a win-win situation for all of us! WE get to conversate and identify plants, and THEY get to research and learn about the plants we helped identify πŸ€—πŸͺ΄πŸ’•
I believe because this is a new-ish app you’re going to have an issue with identification, also the fact that there is a lot of misidentification in our hobbie as well, but as it grows, just like anything else we learn, understand, improve and produce a healthier plant…I mean app.
@PlantAddicted πŸ˜† it’s kind of like a plant…
@kscape Yes!!! I only want to help. It makes me sad when people don’t know what they have or think it’s something else…
