Hello,
Is this plant a Pencil Cactus? I have it propped up with bamboo sticks. Is this OK, or should it be a hanging plant?


What about this other plant???

It appears to be a Rhipsalis.

The first is Rhipsalis. Those yellow bulges on the ends of the branches are flower buds. Rhipsalis is considered a hanging plant.

The other plant is some sort of Crassula.

Dancing Bones Cactus (Hatiora salicornioides)

And here's a link for Crassula. http://garden.org/plants/searc...

#1 Dancing Bones Cactus (Hatiora salicornioides)
#2 & 3 reminds me of: String of Bananas (Curio radicans)

Dancing bones makes a nice hanging plant. The way it sprawls it doesn't look fantastic from the top, but when it blooms its yellow flowers and its green stems look nice in a cascade.

Thank you for your reply!

Someone mentioned the second was some kind of Crassula. Well, after 3 years it just dried up on me and all the "petals" fell off. It happened really fast too! I propagated one good piece. I pray that it is able to take root.

Does this photo of one piece help anyone identify it?

It doesn't look like Pencil Tree (Euphorbia tirucalli) to me but there may be a different plant that also has that common name.

My eyes aren't the best but I wonder if it could be a variety of Juncus?

Corkscrew Rush (Juncus decipiens subsp. decipiens 'Unicorn')
Spiral Rush (Juncus filiformis 'Spiralis')

Disregard my last post ... I went back to the top of the thread and looked at your older photos and it's definitely NOTJuncus. If not a variety of Crassula, I wonder if it might be Senecio of some sort. It's not this one but it sorta reminds me of it a bit:

Pairs of opposite leaves rules out S. radicans, and IDK any Senecios with opposite foliage. It is so etiolated, it's not going to resemble pics of a normal specimen, whatever it is.
