Red Lion has proven to be a show stopper though out the year. All of its color changes are stunning and it has proven to be able to stand up to my Pacific Northwest rainy season. If it's happy and growing well it is a good producer of offsets.

the pictures showing different plants!

& pictures from sandnsea2 are ok (similar to 'Rosanna')
it's not 'Red Lion' - maybe the distributed (wrong?) 'Lowes 60' ?

Thank you so much Erwin. I see that 'Red Lion' is a medium sized semp? Is that correct?
I have removed the incorrect photos from the 'Red Lion' database entry.
I see from Fernwood's photos that it should have a somewhat ciliated edge to the leaves. Do these look correct. I really appreciate your help.

Erwin, I have deleted all of the incorrect photos, and added photos from Fernwood Nursery. If you have some you would like to add, please do. Or I can add them so they will have a hyperlink to your nursery. Let me know.
