Did I Identify my Succulent Correctly?
Hi everyone!
This past year, I successfully propagated a bunch of new little succs from my original batch that are now big enough for their own pots. I attempted to keep track of each propagation’s original plant, but as I’m sure many of you know, it can be a toss up on whether/which plants will grow successfully, and easy to lose track when you’re growing a bunch at once.
You probably also know that baby succs can look quite a bit different than their larger parent plant. So, my current issue is identifying them so I can add them correctly to my Greg stack.
Here is my latest repot. I am thinking it is a Graptoveria Opalina (one of the 12 original plants) but am not entirely sure. App identification is unhelpful, as it gives me a bunch of results that it couldn’t possibly be given my originals.
I tried to get photos from all angles to hopefully help you all take a guess. Any verification or corrections would be greatly appreciated!

@BabeVila thank you for the input! I went ahead and posted her up as a graptoveria for now 🌱☀️
@SucculentSavant I’m so happy you posted this.. I’ve been looking for an identification for one of mine & im 98% sure it’s a graptoveria opalina 😭 @FairyFly check this out out, I think this is 5/6 I’ve been trying to identify on my post!
@Artistic_Stoner and @SucculentSavant I would agree but leaves seem more "plump" and the new growth is rounded and "ballish". From what I've seen, Graptoveria 'Opalina' props seem more pointy. I must say though, that the mother-leaf you have there really does look like the lower leaves of the mature one I found.
@FairyFly an oplalina is the closest between color/leaves & rosettes I can find, I’m convinced this could be it but I’ll wait till the babies are a bit bigger..
You're right @Artistic_Stoner. It's a blessing and curse that there are so many! For both of you, I'd just go with opalina for now.
@Artistic_Stoner I'm so glad this helped you identify yours too 🤍 🌱
@FairyFly yes, the way the new growth looks compared to the shape of the mother leaf is what's been throwing me off with these. I do think the mother looks a lot like yours - I guess we will see if they start changing shape as they mature 🙏🏽
@vvvelo interesting, I'll have to check my originals to see if I have one
