      Possibly a variety of A. arboreum.

      Thanks, pete
      I did wonder about A. arboreum, but these were too low growing. Never seen a mature A.arboreum <1-2m.
      One of the problems with Aeoniums is the amount of hybridisation that goes on.

        Done a bit more digging, and I'm wondering about Aeonium 'Pomegranate'.
        I did notice in their nursery, while I was there, that they had A. 'Pomegranate' for sale.
