Hi, A couple of years ago I was just outside Los Angeles down in a canyon up on a mountain when I found this beauty. Does anyone have any info on this flower? Know anywhere that I might get some seeds? Thanks for looking!

**Extra info: Some of the other similar flowers up there had strange white "bone like" or "deer antler-ish" stems that released a white chalk like residue when touched.

Aeonium sp.? I'm not familiar with them much, but one or two are found in California. A. haworthii is not native to CA, but I think it can be found in the wild.

First thing I'd compare it with is Dudleya.

Dudleya makes way more sense than Aeonium. What about Dudleya pulverulenta?
