Research ongoing. Current guess: Graptopetalum 'Mirinae'.

hmmmm second one is probably going be hard without flower which sadly there's no currently buds on this plant but yes second one looks much closer to Mammillaria pringlei ...I wouldn't call #2 a pringlei. I know a couple of such plants, their spines are a lot thinner, longer and slightly curved. N....

Something like 20years ago, a little something tried to survive inside a Graptopetalum-thicket. It grew a very stright, thin twig with very small greyish green pebble-formed leaves. The twig was lignified. During these times it was said here in the forum that this was a Sedum pachyphyllum or Jelly B...

Hello again, Anttisepp! Hope you & your plants are fine. After looking at loads more pictures I understand what you mean... :-k Well... Just how can I convince #-o the plant to flower...? * On https://www.aloesinwonderland.com/plant-gallery/aloe-ferox I found that an A.ferox likes a nice cool wi...

Hello,
the 2nd plant looks familiar to me. I got one very similar at a conference of the FGaS (Scientific organisation for other succulents) as Anacampseros baeseckei. I would love to trust that name but are still arguing with myself if it might be a A.filamentosa.

Hello everybody, years ago when my plant was very young, we tried to put a name to it & ended up with Aloe ferox. Then many said that it was too young to be named with confidence. So today I try it again as I am really not that secure. When I look at pictures of A.ferox in the net, their plants ...

For me living in the relatively could Germany, it is always wonderful to see such plants grown outside, in ...

Thanks for the help! If I my ask, mind sharing what happened to yours? Sorry, Lolavy, I wasn't able to come to the forum for quite some time. I got my C.winteri in summer 1999 from a dear friend. In 2016 we renovated our flat & had to cram loads of cacti into one single room "for a fortnig...

Very nice, thank you for the pictures, leland. Incredible for me living in Germany that you drive around & just meet such plants at the roadside.... WOW!

Question: Is it possible that IMG_3747.jpg shows a Wallisia...?

Hello,
my Crassula pyramidalis is flowering! I had never expected such buds & flowers growing out of the end of a twig.
The diameter of the flowers is about 3mm (0.12in).
