    Forgive my boldness making a request for plant identification help my first post but I have searched high and low and cannot find any information on this plant I bought a few days ago, so I come here in search of those with knowledge that reaches further than the sales assistants at the store where I bought it and the books I have read. I was told it was a succulent, I feel that, that may be right but that is all I know about it. I have never seen anything like it but I adore it. Any help or wild guesses would be greatly appreciated

    Looks like a horror-Kalanchoe thyrsiflora...

    Thank you for your input guys, greatly appreciated, on my continuing search I found a photo I could source and my mystery plant is a Echeveria cultivar known as the "Paul Bunyan" cultivar. Oddly enough this cultivar is not at all common to nurseries in my area but it is ideally suited to the climate in my area.
