Please help me ID some succulents in my collection? Thanks!
Comments (7)Yes, Welcome to the forum. Those are quite a few to go through for ID. Just have a few minutes jumping in & out of the forum, so quick thoughts on some. 2. Does look like Haworthia cuspidata. 4. A. Is Aloe variegata on the right track with Haworthia pumila for 5. A & B. C. has been see listed by a couple of cultivar names, one being H. attenuata 'Wide Band' or 'Wide Zebra'. Nice Gloxinia! Just so you know, when writing plant names, single quotes are used on cultivar names. Species names are not capitalized. Common names or nicknames can use double quotes (but are not necessary). I believe all Bryophyllum have been moved back into Kalanchoe now. Cute pups, all! The Gasteria & Sans would require lengthy research. Sorry, I've no time for that now. Maybe I'll get back....See MoreAnother Mystery in My collection, ID request please.
Comments (7)Some history- This plant started as a cutting from a Gentleman's personal collection. He brought it over as a cutting himself from a remote village in Mexico over 40 years ago. He has a large collection of these that he's been propagating for years. According to him (Mr Roger Martin,) it is a slow grower and only a handful of people in California have this plant. Those that do have it all originate from him. I asked him what it was but, he didn't know the name of it....See MorePlease Please help with ID's on my succulants..
Comments (11)Chris Yes, pls. number them, take individual photos, or at least just 2-3 per photo. And try to get more of close-ups, some are very small to ID. Succulents need very similar care: fast draining potting mix, containers with drainage holes (hope all of yours have it), very good light - many will do best in good sunlight. And letting us know your general location or at least a growing zone would help. Best if added to your name....See MoreHelp me ID my succulents...Name the succulents! I'd love to id unknown
Comments (9)Hi Gina, no apologies needed:-) people her will chime in on the IDs, it's not a pain at all, and the list is a little less active because it's JUNE, yay, we are all out in the dirt:-) if you don't get a response soon, try this: repost your photos with numbers and just a short request for ID's. That makes it easier for folks to answer. usually you'll get several responses, with each person just IDing a couple plants, rather than one person doing it all. The numbers help make it easier for several folks to each focus on what they know best....See Moremelissacovell
