The rosette of leaves is about 16cm across. Thanks.

I have a small garden in Rome, Italy. Some open soil, some concrete, some paved. Temperatures in winter occasionally down to 0°C. Summer temperatures up to 40°C in the shade. There are never watering restrictions but, of course, there is little natural water for much of June, July and August.

Sorry, but I don't think so - Echeveria elegans that is. E. elegans has rounded leaf ends not pointed; more telling is the translucent white border to each leaf. I think this may be one of the several forms of Echeveria gilva or perhaps more likely Echeveria agavoides.
