I'm not an expert but will say yes. I got 3 from a friend when I went to Denver this May. All had been under watered and were all floppy. One after I watered got much better. The other 2 are still floppy but are putting out new growths. They are the same kind and the other one is different but a noID so I don't know what it is. I do think that it in general has firmer leaves than the other 2 which are 'Fairly Sauced'

Great thread which I have enjoyed reading and digesting ----- but just to 'nitpick' desiccate has only one s and two c's.
