Brief background - I started collecting succulents last year, but wasn't taking it too seriously (more like "ooh, that one's pretty!"). A year later and I'm much more serious about it and now have a large collection of unidentified succulents and I'd really like to know what I have. Tale as old as time, am I right? And what a huge pain...

I spent all of today and yesterday IDing as much as I could with the help of Google, PlantNet app and massive online catalogues of every subspecies of echeveria known to man. But there comes a point where those tools just aren't enough.

it's mainly the echeverias and graptoverias that PlantNet really struggles with and with nowhere else good to start and catalogues hundreds long and so many similar looking types, I just have no idea where to begin on some of these.

Hoping some very kindhearted souls can help point me in the right direction.

I may have to reply to my own post to include all the pics.

Thanks in advance! Any little bit helps.

I asked for this thread to be moved to the succulent forum. Hopefully others here will be able to offer you some ideas. For what it's worth, here are mine:

1. A hybrid of Echeveria pulidonis, perhaps. Yellow flowers?
6. E. colorata or chihuahuensis, or a hybrid of them (big list of possibilities)
10. E. agavoides or a hybrid of it. Flower pictures might help here.

With respect to resolving Echeverias from their close kin (as well as intergeneric hybrids), flowers can be very informative. If you have any flower pictures, those might make a difference here.
