| First one looks like a etiolated sedum hernandezii. It should bloom yellow. This is not a firm ID. |

I hate to contradict Mara who is very knowledgeable, but that's an etiolated Sedum furfurfaceum.
S. hernandezii has bigger leaves that are a brighter green. Jay, this little guy will do well in outdoor shade/partial sun, or grow very compact with a little more sun. It looks like about 6 cuttings. I've had better luck with them being separated. |

| As I said, "not a firm ID". I stand corrected with full knowledge of my fallibility. |
