Hi,

Are you sure? I have Anacampseros rufescens, I bought it with label (it's true that often the labels are not right) and this one has bigger leaves and these "hairs" that my rufescens has not.

My book lists A. rufescens as having numerous hairs and purple under sides of the leaves

I agreed C And D. Like lots of species, sometime they can look quite different because of the natural variation or growing conditions.
"Leaves: Up to 70 per rosette, crowded and spirally arranged, obovate-lanceolate, acute or somewhat acuminated, expanded, somewhat recurred at the apex, unequal in size the larger to 2 cm tall and 1 cm broad woolly in the axil, hairless when mature. The upper surface is dark olive green but, as many succulents do, takes on a reddish cast in the sun or under stress conditions, the underside is usually dark purple. Stipule-hairs white, numerous, bristle-like often wavy."

I post both plants. Are they the same? Same age, same sun exposure, same ubication.

The 1st 1 could be Anacampseros telephiastrum
#2 resembles Anacampseros tomentosa
