Re: Rubin
Yes, this might be a wrong plant. I am trying to sort it out with a guy that sent it to me - and the person that he got it from - It is labeled as
S.arachnoideum cv. Rubin.
They claim there are two RUBIN-s - the one you pointed out (I have this one, too) and this Sempervivum arachnoideum cultivar ...
VBut than again there might be two of them - a S. arachnoideum and a S. tectorum cultivar, both named RUBIN.
S.arachnoideum cv. Rubin.

Re: Rubin
Eh, you must admit: red colour is close to rubin. Name suits the colour.

Re: Rubin
I think I can further solve this mystery... The arachnoideum cultivar being called 'Rubin' is actually S. arachnoideum cv. "Robin" David T. Ford (UK) 1976

My own clump of 'Robin' (from Fernwood) looks exactly like the one in your photo, Admin
