Succulent ID help

Hey everyone! I purchased these beautiful succulents a couple days ago and need help identifying them. Any help would be appreciated and tips are more than welcome.

Thank you in advance! :)

    A2 - maybe E. runyonii; B1 maybe Echeveria agavoides; B3 perhaps xGraptoveria 'Fred Ives' but could be one of the echeverias; D3 & E1 look like Sempervivums.

    Hi Allie,

    Perhaps you're new here.

    I hope you realize the the whole collection in the first pic are ALL Echeverias. So IDs aren't really needed to learn to care for them, they mostly all take the same care.

    Same is true of the 2nd photo except for #s 2, 11 & 12.

    # 2 is a Crassula, either perforata, rupestris or marneriana.

    Personally, I think posting ID requests for TWO DOZEN plants at once is a lot. Many folks here try to limit to 10 at a time.

    Also, if you're going to buy so many plants at once, why not ask the Vendor for LABELS?!

    A1: echeveria pulidonis B2: echeveria topsy turvy C1: echeveria lola H2: string of peas(?)

    pretty selections. where did you go?:)

    also- have you had succulents before? If not, I definitely would suggest not to be your first haul so huge. I started with three, haha. Pot in 50/50 perlite or pumice and cactus and succulent soil in a (preferably) terracotta pot with a drainage hole.

    These are all just guesses.

    A1-Echeveria pulidonis ; A2-Echeveria runyonii 'Topsy Turvy' ; A3-Echeveria 'Neon Breakers'?

    B1-Echeveria agavoides ; B2-Pachyveria ? ; B3-Echeveria 'Afterglow'?

    C1-Echeveria 'Lola' ; C2-Pachyveria ? ; C3-Echeveria peacockii ?

    D1-? ; D2-Graptoveria 'Debbi' ; D3-Sempervivum ?

    E1-Sempervivum ? ; E2-Crassula perforata? ; E3-?

    F1-Echeveria elegans? ; F2-Graptopetalum superbum ; F3-?

    G1-Echeveria halbingeri? ; G2-? ; G3-Echeveria colorata? or E. chihuahuaensis?

    H1-? ; H2-Senecio rowleyanus ; H3-Senecio ?

    @lmontestella

    Yes, I am new here and was not aware of the 10 limit rule. I really want to be able to identify each variety so I included them all. I also thought one post would be best because I did not want to spam the forum with separate posts.

    @succulentss Thank you! They're from RV Nursery in Buena Park. They were only $2 each and I couldn't resist haha. I was only able to shop around for 15 minutes because they were closing but they really have a large selection of plants and succulents. I can't wait to go back!


    And I'm still a newbie with succulents but this isn't my first haul haha

    @Rina @Frank

    Thank you! Can't wait to look those up. Kinda bummed A2 is a topsy turvy and not a cubic frost but that's okay.

    Allie, you never know, A2 could be E. 'Cubic Frost', the two are very similar looking, just wait until it grows bigger and see if it shows lilac/pink coloration. Have a read at this, halfway down at the commercial comparison paragraph, it compares 'Topsy Turvy' with 'Cubic Frost' in description:

    Those are gorgeous! And for $2 each? Wow great deal!

    @Frank Thank you for the link :) My succulent does look like it has a purple hue as opposed to greyed green. I'll have to take another look at it in the morning. I'm keeping my fingers crossed haha

    @LB I know! I also bought a hydrangea with blooms for $2 (the seller knocked down the price from $8). This nursery is a gem :)
