Dudleya getting ready. North Coast, SLO County
I've censored the exact location, so as not to tip off the succulent-thieves.
Color is as true-to-life as I could make it. The cold weather seems to bring out the reds, and this was an unusually bright one. It will bloom soon, an early one. Most of them don't bloom until late May or June.
This is likely Dudleya x cymosa. These are notoriously hard to ID to species, as they hybridize!
Individual rosettes for this one are palm size. These plants range from babies an inch or two across, to old timers a foot or more per rosette, and commonly cluster like this one.
