I can't see enough detail from the low quality image here to tell much about the nature of the surface of the plant. Somebody is being pretty creative with the naming though to call this a derivative of 'Raindrops'

Also information on the dimensions of the plant in the image is critical to interpretation of what the origin cultivar(s) is (are). The perspective of this plant isn't like any of the dozens of Raindrop crosses I've seen. This looks more like a derivative of one of the larger carunculates, but it is hard to say without some idea as to the dimensions of the the plant height and leaf length.

Referring back to the image of 'raindrops' notice the leaf shape compared to that of Jon's plant. I've not seen even the most etiolated 'Raindrops' leaf look like that.

here's an image of a 'Raindrops' cross I made, one we call 'Chocolate Drop'
