Succulent identification help, please!
Comments (3)Not able to view photo, but does not seem to fit K. tubiflorum (best as K. delagoensis, but if you like Bryophyllum, then it is B. tubiflorum). Leaves should be in threes, or alternate, or rarely in pairs. Leaf is tubular, not petiolate, and with a groove above. Not likely to produce seeds, but does have plantlets which are near the leaf tips with at least one pair of tiny leaves and well developed aerial roots.

Comments (10)I'd plant the sad looking one separately in a small pot with gritty mix or full Turface. It'll come back. I did the same thing with mine in the thread below with the help of some forum members. That one was odd because in the whole large pot, only that one ailed whereas the others are as happy as can be. Much like yours looks. Unlike you, *I* did this to this lolant, lol. So, logically, whatever is working okay for the others is not working for that Echeveria. While I originally potted it into potting mix first because the roots looked really dry, I think, in hindsight, potting it straight into gritty mix would have expedited the situation. The Jade and Panda, I'd also separate into separate pretty and small pots, too. But that's just me. :-) Grace Here is a link that might be useful: Project Revive: SOS...See Moretwo small succulents (?) I can't identify
Comments (5)Probably both some species of Echeveria. They could use a lot more sun, and probably a little less water. If they survive the winter, repot them into a coarse, fast draining mix come spring. Also, as soon as there is no threat of freeze, they would prefer to be outside in direct sunlight. Just be sure to gradually acclimate them to the sun over the course of a couple of weeks so that you don't sunburn them....See MoreSucculent Identification & Health Help!
Comments (2)Dont mist them. And only water when completely dry. But you should at the very least get them in soil mixed with atleast 50% perlite. The ones that are shabby looking, i would pull them out and look at the roots. If they are black and slimy, its root rot, they need to be cut off to healthy green tissue at the stem (sterilizing your blade in alcohol after EVERY cut) let them calluss for a few days then plant them in NEW, DRY soil with atleast half perlite. If your interested you can search on this forum for Al's gritty mix and see if you are interested in making it. I use it and it works great. Also black spots are NOT normal and usually mean rot....See Morekaktuskris
