This natural hybrid, first described by Werner Rauh after finding it in Argentina, predominantly resembles T. argentina, the seed parent.  The leaves are longer and the plant has a more open rosette than T. argentina, which is the influence of T. ixioides.  Neat little clumper best mounted on wood or rock (first discovered growing on rocks)
