Need your help on a cactus ID...again!

[Royal]

Sue, The last pics in the last set looks like Echivaria or a Sedum. Could be Sedovaria - an artificial genus resulting from this hybridizing across genus lines.

Thanks Royal

I just found a really great site:
The Succulent Plant Page - start here

We have, however, come upon a problem through doing the research...


now I have a cacti/succulent wishlist too!

[cb977]

I now realize that many of the succulents and cacti that I have can and should take better light, so I'll be re-arranging things...when the four new ones I just ordered get here!

How do I explain this one?



I ordered:

Crassula susannae
Aeonium decorum variegata 'Kiwi'
Sedum rubrotinctum 'Aurora'
Crassula capitella

from Succulent and Cactus are our Speciality! gosucculent.com is the #1 Online Nursery...

Too funny that you are now ordering succulents!

Nice choices though, I really love the Sedum rubrotinctum and Sedum rubrotinctum and the Crassula capitella is to die for!!
You've given me some ideas of succulents I want to put in my 'rocaille' (dunno the english word) at my countryhouse....

And where do you plan or putting them? Get rid of some orchids? LOL

There's another vendor with a lot more that I want...they have their own section on my wishlist They had the Sedum rubrotinctum with the name "Jelly Beans" as it's cultivar name...what a cutie!!!

gosucculent.com: SEDUM RUBROTINCTUM "JELLY BEANS"


The place I ordered from had slightly cheaper pricing...and I know I'll be ordering from the other place at some point

[camille1585]

'Jelly Beans' is a perfect name for it! I didn't know there was so much diversity in the succelents. I buy hardy succulents for my rock garden thingy, and they are always plain old green plants.

Be sure to post pics when your new plants arrive!

In my yard at home I have Sedum "Angellina" it forms this HUGE mat of golden needle like folliage
here is a link to a pic: http://pics.davesgarden.com/pics/nor...5612207_90.jpg
and the best part is it's really brittle and will root almost anywhere. I accidentally knock pieces off all the time and just toss it somewhere and it grows

That link is a no-no...the best way to show a picture from elsewhere is to just copy and paste the web page it's on rather than the individual photo.

SORRY!!!! I was NOT thinking.
I can give you the link to the whole site if you like here it is PlantFiles: Pictures of Jenny's Stonecrop, Crooked Yellow Sedum, Stone Orpine, Spruce-leaved Stonecrop, Prickmadam 'Angelina' (Sedum rupestre)
This is bizarrely ironic seeing as I'm working on a horribly tedious MLA styles and citation assignment that is supposed to protect me from plagiarism . . . .better get back to that before posting any more links .. . ..

I know exaclty how that happens. One minute you're doing some innocent research on pitcher plants; next thing you know you're on the phone placing an order at petflytrap.com Home Page.
