My succulent propagation have been putting out some weird leaf growth. I'm not sure if this is normal but they don't come out in rosettes. They look like a bunch of leaves bunched together. What can I do to fix this? Also, if someone can ID them for me, it would be greatly appreciated.

At this size, growth does seem to be a little chaotic but, when they get bigger, you will see they are rosettes.

These look fantastic! How are they now?

Sorry for the late response, I haven't logged in for a while. They're doing great actually! I transplanted them into an arrangement with other props shortly after I posted my original post. They somehow survived the Seattle winter. I just left them outside and forgot they existed until recently. Pictures below.

Amazing and beautiful! What a great follow-up! What kind of lows did you have this past winter? Were they protected from getting rained on?

Our lowest was 25F. They sit on my porch and are mostly shielded from rain but they get a lot of dew in the morning so perhaps that was why I didn't have to worry about watering. Do you have any idea for the ID for these succs? The only cold-hardy succulent I know of are sempervivums and sedums. And these guys don't exactly look like them.

That sounds like it was perfect, probably kept from being frozen solid, and kept from being too wet while cold. I'm in a similar zone to yours and I have about a half-dozen types of little sucs that have been in an always-outside mini garden since 2013. It seems that plenty of sucs can handle a little frost, and some can handle more of a freeze, as long as they are not soggy-wet when it happens.

The gray ones look like some type of Grapto- a Graptosedum hybrid would make sense, with the Sedum genes helping kick in more hardiness.

The red one may be another hybrid like Sedeveria (hybrid of Sedum & Echeveria).

The brownish ones look like Echeveria or similar hybrid thereof.

When they bloom, you might be able to get more specific / confident ID's.

'California Sunset' leaves starting to sprout tiny new leaves. Significant roots should start to show soon.
