Hey everyone! I just got back from Greece (Symi island specifically) and encountered a stunning succulent that had tiny, green, polyhedral leaves, which looked like gemstones and were about 0.5-1cm in size. They were growing in clusters and were quite different from the typical round leaves of a Sedum morganianum. Unfortunately, I forgot to snap a picture, and now I'm on a mission to find out what it might have been. I've looked around, but I'm pretty sure it's not Pachyphytum or Cremnosedum. Any ideas? Thanks!

What about Pachyphytum compactum? It's often called Little Jewel and has some really neat leaf shapes. It could be a match!
Could it be a Haworthia cooperi? That one has a pretty cool look! I did check some pictures, and while the leaf shapes are similar, I noticed the ones I saw had a more transparent look compared to what you described. Still, it's worth a look!
Thanks for the suggestion! I see what you mean, but I remember the ones I saw were just vibrant green without that translucent vibe.
You might want to consider Sedum dasyphyllum or Crassula rupestris. They have unique leaf shapes and colors, and one of them might just be the one you're looking for!
I don't think that's it — the leaves were quite small and uniform in size. Plus, I'm pretty sure they weren't growing in clusters like that.
