Are you aware of a known issue for 'Geronimo' (did people have it in the past and it was determined to be a NOID?)
I'm going to wait and see what this plant does this summer but I'm loving it right now!! I hope it is a correct plant!
Hi Greg,
I see that SMG Succulents lists it, and shows a photo, one can click to enlarge, the rosettes look green with reddish brown tips. SMG's description is "Medium sized shiny maroon/red leaves fading out in cooler weather. C.W. Nixon, 1980".

So I riffle through a large binder of Sempervivum Fanciers Association Newsletters from 1979-1987, published by C. William (Bill) Nixon. Volume XI, No.3, September 1985, has an article on his Sempervivum and Jovibarba cultivars, the brief entry for 'Geronimo' is:
"(CWN 80.46) Another of my hybrids of unknown parentage, this plant was introduced around 1980. It has shiny red leaves but does not hold this color all year. It appears to be another offspring of 'Pallasii', but this is by no means certain".
