Can you help me ID these succulent?

15 years ago

I have a couple of succulents in a rock garden that i don't know what they are. I bought them at discount stores, so they didn't come with ID tags. All they were labeled as were "Succulents". Can anyone help me ID any of these? Thanks.

the only one i know about is the pachypodium lamereii in the center in the back (which is dormant).

Bottom right looks like a Aloe dorotheae.
Small light brown (center left) one looks like a type of haworthia. To the right of the little brown one behind the aloe is a pinwheel succulent (Aeonium haworthii). Hope that makes sense.

The one previously ID'd as possibly a haworthia looks like a Gasteria to me.

3-4. I think 3 is an Echeveria 'Perle Von Nürnberg looking for more light and 4 an Aloe juvenna.

If I may suggest - regardless of exact ID, they would do better in different potting media. Looks like they are in original peat? Succulents need good drainage - that means pot with drainage hole(s) and fast draining mix. And lots of sun (after being acclimatized to it).

Thx, Stefan, I hadn't seen nor heard that before. Guess I've got some reading to do. So Neil, can we agree to GTW? As someone who grows both, it's a handsome rascal. I confess I was eyeing those white ridges, that thickness reminds me of Gasterias.

i think that one is not a gasteria or haworthia, but more like an Aloe rauhii that could use a little more water and a little less sun.

the very center plant (behind the rock) looks like an echeveria, as well as another one in the background, left. the plant farthest right, middle row, looks like a "silver dollar jade, a form of Crassula arborescens.

not sure of the species, but i don't think the aloe at lower right is A. dorothea.

p.s. the aeonium is not A. haworthii. Probably A. arborescens

Thanks to all of you. Ming, I think i'm going to have to agree with the aloe rauhii as being the correct ID. I knew it was an aloe, I just didn't know which one. I also should have mentioned that it originally wasn't brown. It was green at first.

And about the Aloe in the lower right side, I wonder if it's a hybrid of A. Dorotheae? It did begin to turn a bright orange earlier with lack of water.

The aloe that resembles A. Dorotheae might be Aloe congolensis. That central Echeveria, next to the Aloe rauhii, could be E. 'Black Prince'
