we really can't ID anything without pictures. Figs do come in all shapes and sizes, it's quite possible it is a fig. Look up ficus instead, you might have more luck. As for the bugs soak the whole pot in a bucket of water, the bugs should surface, then you can scoop them out. Make sure it drains really well before putting it back.

Another mystery plant and mystery hitchiker

The hitch-hiker looks like something from Crassulaceae family. If it's making pairs of opposite leaves, Crassula genus is likely. Once it gets some age in better light, it should become recognizable. Cute!

Mystery crassula with mystery issues

Many succulents often change color depending on different growing conditions, time of year etc. Many succulents will put on more, warmer, color when exposed to more light. I imagine it was either inside or in low light conditions when you bought it and exposure to more light along with maturity have caused the color change. That chalky stuff you are talking about could be a glaucus leaf coating which is also normal on some plants. I've seen a bronze graptoveria go from a bright pink to a deep green because it was moved into a low light condition (color change caused by stress.) I've also seen stapelias turn from green to pink/orange when moved into higher lighting conditions. Sempervivum hens and chicks change colors year round depending on the season which is one of the things that appeals to many collectors of this spieces. I'm assuming the last picture posted is probably a better representation of what the plant color is more likely to look like. It doesn't look like a Crassula to me. It looks more like some kind of cotyledon reminds me a bit of cotyledon mint truffle but it does have a margin closer to a kalanchoe millotii. It looks a lot like a kalanchoe of some sort actually. There are a lot of kalanchoe's that have a fuzzy coating on the leaves. Hope this helps get you started on a Google search. It's still early though I'm sure someone will be able to ID it here for you.

After another look at the picture, I'm thinking it could be a Gaillardia.

Dee is right, it's a waterlily, probably the fairly common blue one usually known as Nymphea capensis. The stamens are a giveaway.

We have a winner! Your turn Dee. It was the blue waterlily. It was hard to decide which flower to choose that wasn't too hard but not too easy. Sorry MM, I should have started a new thread.
