Default clarifying...

I think my earlier post was attempting to ID the plant SummaScriptura found... that A decorum or A spathulatum or something similar in size but with a different habit, as he described.

My later post about the branching Aeonium nobile (hybrid?) was probably meant to follow up a different thread where the branching Aeonium nobile was the initiating subject (also by SummaScriptura, if memory serves).

In that thread, we discussed how this branching form seems to flower pink or dark pink rather than deep red, which was another clue -- in spite of the robust, thick nobile leaves -- that this A nobile might be a hybrid.

As we know, though, such differences are sometimes due to hybridization, but sometimes it's just different collection or locality, or a sport.

Sorry for the confusing misplacement of my follow-up.
