  1. FYI...I identified this as "Echeveria setosa".

    This is not entirely correct per your description but JungleDragon does not really support subspecies, hybrids or cultivations. It's possible to create such records as "fake" species but this quickly becomes a mess in terms of organization. So going with the strategy to identify this as a "base" species. People can still learn from your description that it's a hybrid.
