Succulent ID Help, Please? (Pics)
Comments (4)Ah, everyone's right about the alien plant. It looks like Orbea variegata was moved from Stapelia sometime relatively recently. Thank you all so much. I've had this plant (now several of them) for years, and for some reason never got around to posting pictures to find out what it is. It's resilient, I can tell you that! :-) The second set of plants I believe are the same plant. The friend I got them from said they were both from cuttings from one plant. I suppose she could be mistaken, but they were identical when I got them, and she doesn't really have a large collection of succulents. I assumed the one turned green because its root to soil ratio was better so it was getting more water. When I got them they looked kind of like this picture of brevifolia. But there are so many Aloes, I'm not sure I could pick it out of a line-up, so to speak. Thanks for trying though. I'm still happy to hear ideas.) And googling plant pictures is always fun- you never know what you'll find. I'd never seen a Orbea decaisneana before. Very pretty. :-)...See MoreSucculent Id Help, Please
Comments (2)I believe it would be considered a rosette. It grows much like an aloe (not like a hen-and-chick, echeveria rosettes). Diana in PA...See MoreSucculent ID help please!
Comments (3)Hi, I just bought a tiny version of this yesterday. Mine wasn't labeled either, but I just searched it and found that it is called Crassula sarmentosa 'Variegata'....See MoreSucculent ID help please! x5
Comments (3)Nice plants, but they have different care requirements so they're not good candidates to put together. Ex: Haworthias prefer indirect light to part shade, while Crassulas want as much direct sun as they can get. Personally, I'd be more concerned to get them out of that peaty looking & mix into more appropriate soil....See Moreb_lydia
