Cacti & Succulents

Can anyone help ID these?

I picked up a succulent dish this morning from the bargain cart for $5.00. They were falling out of the pot, I removed the old soil and cleaned them up, seemed dehydrated, I gave a good soaking and now seem to be perking up. Any help with the ID's would be greatly appreciated.

TIA, Joe

On the right is a type of Jade (Crassula), either Hobbit or Gollum.

Looks more like a Hobbit to me, it appears to have folded leaves, Gollums have the suction cupped ends. Though both can have both, just go with the most prevalent.

Gill, hope you don't mind (it is actually cute & funny) = but I am sure you meant 'rootball' in your previous post... Travis Glass bowls are not good for succulent (actually, not good for majority of plants) because they don't have drainage hole. Your plant wants to grow, but it needs different pot, well draining potting mix and lots of light. It will be a nice plant if you can supply those asap.

Sorry, # 3 is not a Jade tree, Rachel is correct, it's a variegated Portulacaria afra (unrelated to Jade). Last an Aloe maybe called Walmsey. The #2 plant is tropical, requiring high humidity, quite different than the last 2 which are succulents.

Definitely a Campanula. there are lots of them, so nailing down exactly which one it is may be a guessing game. My guess would be campanula persicifolia.

The cactus is a Gymnocalycium. Third is Crassula ovata, one of the confusing Hobbit/Gollum/Skinny Fingers ones, middle plant could be Pachyphytum/ Graptopetalum/ Echeveria group.... Blooms would help a lot for this one!!!

The cleanliness of your plants is triggering my OCD. I love it!! So shiny and pristine!

I didn't know you can soak/wet the plants when you clean out the roots for repotting! What's the protocol for this? Wash, then dry for how many days before potting?

I usually clean out the roots as best I can (obviously not perfectly) and repot to my gritty mix straight. Now I'm wondering if I should have rinsed them all off to get super clean roots.
