Help - Identify plant

12 years ago

Could somebody please let me know if this is a weed, as it has appeared in my vegetable patch, and I can not remember if I planted it or not. It might be obvious, as I am new to gardening. Thanks

that plant appears to me to be a white oak (tree). I live in
Stafford, Connecticut (USA) and they are very common
here as we are surrounded by forest. They often pop up
amongst my perennials.

Agree with seedmoney on C ID. A. a Crassula (can't think of possible species now) B. Sedum praealtum (longer name using dendroideum, but this one ought to do) D. a Kalanchoe, likely one of the named '________ Bells' E. Sedum 'Super Burro's Tail' (it has other names used for it as well)

Agreed, definately a Bromeliad which is a tropical (family of Pineapple). Perhaps do an image search re: Bromeliad & see what photos might match your plant. Maybe an Achmea, but I don't recall them having spines on their edges.
