Could anyone who is familiar with the Manfreda genus have a look at the plant files pictures here: [HYPERLINK@davesgarden.com] They look to me as if more than one species or variety is present. My plant closely resembles the ones that Happenstance posted, but not the ones palmbob posted. It is also a far bigger plant than the ones described in the note from dmj1218. The flower spike last year topped out at over 6feet high, and the mature leaves are just over a foot long for each leaf, giving a final rosette diameter of nearly 2 feet. For the purposes of scale the outside edges of the hypertufa pot are about 7 inches apart.

Also please check this link (it may not work but I'm trying something new): [HYPERLINK@davesgarden.com]

If the link doesn't work I'll come back and re-post all the photos to this thread.

Edited to add: The second link is a no go - I will re-post all the photos as I get the chance
