Name that Crassula.

What is this guy? The plant (not flowering) has a honey type smell. I want to see if anybody has noticed this. There's no scale or other bugs on it (under a loupe).

My Plantfinder app says that’s “Sexy Lizard Pants”

No idea. Looks more like an Echeveria prolifica in form to me. But the hairy leaves aren’t right.

Check out Sempervivum arachnoidium, Lloyd

Neither of those

Looks almost like a young Sedum multiceps. Or a young Robert De Niro. Either way, I would expect it to be harrier though. I'm still going Sedum. Now I've got it down to about 400 species for you, Lloyd. You are welcome, sir!

 

[Lloyd Gordon]

Yes, it's a Sedum! You're correct. Thanks.

I asked someone I know and they think it belongs in the Monanthes genus, possibly either minima or muralis. We can get a more accurate identification once it flowers.

 

[Lloyd Gordon]

You guys are great! Now that I've looked, I'm sure it is a Monanthes. Not sure which species. Maybe even polyphylla? No mention of honey like smell though.
Thanks.

I can't believe I didn't even look it up in my 5 volume Cacti and Succulents books!
