Hi Lynn - the photo of Pacific Knight in the database is one I posted from Fernwood so I assume it's correct. I used to have one I got from Greg but already noted it was a NOID

Here is what it looked like in 3/2015
I didn't get any summer pictures, pretty sure it turns all red though.

Greg's current photo does seem consistent with mine and the SS photo. I asked Sue at SS if it ever turned solid red. Her response:
"I guess I would call it a deep chocolate- burgundy instead of a red, but it does become a very deep color. It is a pretty one and kind of resembles Oh My.
Have a great day,
Sue"

I noticed some change on my 'Pacific Knight' today. The red coloration in the tips is strengthening and spreading farther down each leaf. It might yet turn completely red.

Our two plants do look quite consistent with each other. I would think they are the same plant, all evidence considered.

It is Kevin's we need a picture of to see what his winter growth looks like - but I don't want to bother the master! Sticking tongue out @JungleShadows

It seems to be looking ever more like a 'Pacific Knight' should. Am I gonna have to send a letter of apology to Simply Succulents?

Mine may not be correct, now that I see your photo, mine has skinnier leaves. Will take another photo later in the week.
