Graptopetalum paraguayensis
Here is a picture of Graptopetalum paraguayensis that I replanted the tops of the plants after I had to remove them from under a large Agave salmiana and Agave 'MR. Ripples' this summer. I replanted the ends since the plants were so broken up and shed most leaves. They came back great. They will begin to kind of creep up over many of the rocks next summer. You can not see it in this photo, but when sun is shining the colors are ephemeral-like in color. This plant has to be planted out of traffic since it sheds its leaves when moved around much much like a Sedum might.

Other than extremely nice, I don't know what your plant is but I am certain that isn't Graptopetalum paraguayense. This is it here, next to the Dudleya.

Re: Graptopetalum paraguayensis
You are right. What is the plant I have?/ IT is a wonderful ground cover hardy succulent. Perhaps someone on here knows the answer. Thanks again. Do you think the plant you show as Graptopetalum would be hardy in zone 8A?

Pachyveria?????
There is a similar plant offered by Mountain Crest that is called Pachyveria????? Could this be what I have? I bought it years ago as Graptopetylm, but glad to maybe find out what it really is?
