potted succulents

I potted up the first bowl of succulents today.  About half of the cuttings I took have started putting out roots so I decided it was time to arrange them.

What we have here are three Echeverias of a light-blue persuasion - I think they're Echeveria secunda, "hens and chicks" (this website is an excellent source that I've been shamelessly drawing from).  In between the Echeveria I've put in a few Sedum rubrotinctum ("jelly beans" or "pork and beans") - they're green with a lovely red tinge that should be a great contrast to the Echeveria.  In the middle is another sedum that's a bit more lemon-yellow than the others but I'm not sure if it's a different species.

I was starting to have some issues with some of the cutting shriveling up, especially in the Echeveria and yo ucan see it in these ones.  I wasn't sure if they were rotting or drying out - do I water them more or less?!  But It sounds like they were drying out, so they all got a bit of a watering today.  And lucky for me, the blue Echeveria is from my own garden so if they die there are plenty more to steal!
