Um, you might want to check those results? My pic got 6 likes. Don't have to change it, I'm not going to win anyways.

Wait what? Someone removed a like from my post a few minutes ago....

It happens

Just a bit confusing...

There is absolutely no chance of me winning this contest... But, I wanted to show this cool succelent that I grow. It was given to me from a friend and it's been doing really well.

It has a really cool and interesting color on the edges!

Echeveria agavoides?

Thanks! Now I know what it's called.
I have to say, mine is much more robust than the pics on google.
I think the secret to growing succelents is light, the more light it gets, the larger it'll grow.
