    Flowering succulent

    I chanced upon this plant at a nursery while traveling and couldn't pass it up. Best in the litebox (lytbox? lightbox?). 13 images, stacked with Zerene XMap. C&C welcome as always.

    Nice composition Dan, well processed. I think this may be of a Genus: Echeveria, Species: Elegans with a common name of: Mexican Snowball. But I could be wrong

    I love the lighting and colors against the black background. However, if it were mine, I would try it without the partial bloom lower image left...

    Re: Flowering succulent

    Thanks, all. Peter, yes, I am pretty sure it is an echeveria, but I have no clue which type. Richard, an interesting idea. I could easily clone it out. I'll think about that.

    I only saw the last one this morning. Perhaps I should return sometime today...It looks like a nice plant. Is it easy to take care of?

    It's supposed to be--water well but infrequently, give it lots of light, and put it in a hot environment if you have one--but only time will tell. I bought it only last week.
