Luscious!

If you want a "wrong-time-of-the-year" story, I ordered succulents from San Diego in February of 2004. Where I grew up, February is spring. Trouble is, I now live in Iowa. (All but one made it, amazingly.)

Thank you Ana. I think the plants loved their 'outside time'. During that short interval they were the host to lots of spiders. I fear the 'lil Arachnids hitch-hiked back inside and will have very little to eat.

Many of my echeverias are producing blooms right now. They seem to grow well both in the Spring, and in the Fall. I don't think you did anything at the wrong time of year. Mine live outside year round in temps that are often in the 34-36 range overnight in late November to early January. Upper thirties are no problem for echies. But leaving them outside overnight in temps below 1-2C would definitely be the wrong thing at the wrong time of year :)

That's good to know, Para. Next year I plan to move them out early and keep them out until danger of frost.
