Hi! Does anyone know what succulent this is and why it’s making small clumps where old leaves have fallen off? I’m hoping it’s a good sign!

#lovemyplantIts a echeveria And those lumps means you plant has a genetic mutation which can be bad for your plant or good it depends Just keep an eye on it

It might die and revert to its original form according to google which can also kill it but it can also just change the form or color of you plant which it will not kill the plant it might just look funny

Succulent❤️MamaI would not trust Google on that one. I have had plants that do that and they grow a new rosette at the end where the growth tip was and it is the exact same plant it was. It’s just like the succulents growing pups out of the end of leaves. Be cautious when googling for answers. People often post things when they don’t know without disclosing where they got the information from. I really appreciate that you mentioned where you got this information from so the poster didn’t think it’s something you have experienced.😊

Thanks for the advise but I looked on a trusted site on google I know because my friend runs it and she’s has had plants for up to 40 years

Gotcha😊 Well, then I learned something new. I have heard of this for grafted plants like roses and fruit trees, but never for un grafted plants like succulents. I know seeds from hybrid plants revert too. Thanks for adding the extra information.😊

That’s totally normal! What probably happened, is the leaves that were coming out of the growth tip died. So the plant is putting off new baby plants out of that spot. I had a plant that did that, but the new baby plant on top is big enough now that I eventually removed the leftover big leaves and planted it deeper to grow more roots. So I can’t really show you. But yes, that is totally normal for a plant that the leaves at the growth tip died for some reason other than rot, and fell off. In my case it was because they were too close to the window when it got real cold outside and those leaves froze. The rest of the plant was still totally healthy, which is why it grew a new rosette on the end there.

Thank you that’s so helpful! It was a free one from my uni so it probably wasn’t the healthiest when I got it

You are welcome😊 I tried running it through planta for identification but didn’t do well since it doesn’t look like it typically does at the moment. My guess would be a grapetopetalum, grapetoveria, or similar with those leaves. I’m going to think on it for a minute and get back to you if I can narrow it down more.

The leaves remind me of a grapetoveria (not this specific one)
