This was also taken as a cutting and decided it liked it in my greenhouse. It gets an occasional water but nothing else - not at all demanding - good house guest!

Certainly looks like Echeveria, although the common name House Leek refers to Sempervivum (not Echeveria). Lovely plants and I can't believe how quickly mine has grown.

Hi Sheilar, hi Meanie,
I find it strange to think the originals from which these cuttings were taken must be over 20 yrs old!! I just nipped these bits off and stuck them in some pots.

I've got a pot of these - they're echeveria (house leeks) and I agree, they take no looking after.
