Hi there. So, I, being a newbie...need a little bit of help with IDs.

Of all places to carry succulents, my local pavillions is carrying them. I've purchased several on my various trips...what's another couple dollars on the grocery bill. Haha. Besides the ones I got were in need of rescue.

Here is the first one, what is this?
{{gwi:553713}}

Here is #2. It's variegated, right?
{{gwi:553714}}

Here is #3, I bought 2
{{gwi:553715}}

Is it the same as this one, which I already own?
{{gwi:553716}}

Here is #4, variegated, right?
{{gwi:553717}}

This one I got from a co-worker, 2 huge cuttings. She said they give dragon fruit? True?
{{gwi:553718}}

Thx all for the help!!!! :)

    First is baby toes.. almost bought one today. lol.. Not sure the "family" though..

    # 3 I think is Senico ?

    #4 is variegated Jade

    and the last I'm not sure.. never seen anything like it in reference to dragon fruit.

    Boy, I really need to brush up on the proper names. LOL!

    I think #3 might be Crassula mesembryanthemoides, I bought one recently (assuming mine was labeled correctly!). It looks similar but not the same as the one you already have, but I don't have that much experience with it.

    #4 does not look like Jade to me...

    The large cactus cuttings are a type of Cereus peruvianus monstrose...They do produce a red skinned edible fruit, but not Dragonfruit.

    It looks like a stretching jade to me. lol.. But it's a guess ;-)
    Thanks for the info on the last one! Always love learning something new!

    Isn't that the Kalanchoe thrysifolia variegate that's the latest Kalanchoe Frankensteined?

    #2 looks like it could be Echeveria 'Decora'

    Your white sux are senecio haworthii and the first pic is fenestraria rhopalophylla. There's an Echeveria in there and a variegated jade. Last is Montrose cereus peruvianus. You can eat the fruit... Not much flavor, just sweet.

    Sorry, but the stems on #4 do not look like variegated Jade to me, nor do the way some of the leaves curl like that look like Jade. Looks more like an etiolated Echeveria.

    As some others have given IDs ~my added 2 cents & agreement with others:

    1. Fenestraria rhopalophylla
    2. Echeveria 'Decora'
    3. & 4. Senecio haworthii
    5. Aeonium castello-paivae (Suncups is common name)
    6. Cereus peruvianus f. monstrosus

    Thx all for your insight. I'm gonna look up some of these names. Since there was question with a couple of them...most likely due to the angle of the pic, I retook 2 of them.

    1. Is indeed Fenestraria rhopalophylla (baby toes), but mine is super leggy. Looks nothing like the images I saw. I hope those toes straighten up.

    2. If it is echeveria decora, will mine do this? If so, HOW???? (: I love the purple tint. {{gwi:553722}}

    3. Bummed that 3 is exactly the same as what I already have (#4). :/ was hoping it was something new. Oh well (:

    5. Yup. Totally is Aeonium castello-paivae f. variegata 'suncups'. Will they remain small? Gosh, I hope it recovers, it was a total rescue...I loved the dainty little flowers.

    6. Yep, totally Cereus peruvianus f. monstrosus. I saw pics with red fruits that some called apples...looks neat, never had them can't wait for them to give fruit. (:

    You guys are all amazing! So quick and spot on with the names. Thx so much!

    2. If it is echeveria decora, will mine do this? If so, HOW???? (: I love the purple tint. {{gwi:553722}}

    From the new angle I can see the TINY teeth on the edge of the leaf on the Aeonium castello-paivae f. variegata 'suncups'.

    Christopher has better eyes than me ;-) .
