I happened to be in Home Depot today so picked up the Echeveria Perle von Nurnberg I thought I bought four days ago. Here are the imposter Red Sky and Perle side by side. Perle is by far the largest plant I have in a four-inch pot, but that's all I had today.
Echeveria Red Sky and Echeveria Perle von Nurnberg
They are closely related and do (or did) look almost alike. Red Sky seems to be a lighter, more reddish color, but that may have developed in just the past few days from getting a lot more light than on a shelf at Home Depot. I think the plant on the right is the same one I had in my hand four days ago, and I recall the color of the two plants being exactly the same then. It will be interesting to see what the two look like next week after Perle catches some rays. Anyway, Perle can be crossed off my bucket list.
