Hello,

I recently bought succulents, but there were no labels nor a salesperson who spoke English. Could you name these? I think two images are of the same plant.

Thanks so much!

Suggestions to compare to your plants:

#3 White Velvet (Tradescantia sillamontana)

#4 Inch Plant (Tradescantia cerinthoides)

Number one looks like something in the Ice Plant family (aka Aizoaceae).

Thanks BlueOddish. It does look like an Aizoaceae. Does it bloom year-round or during a specific season?

Thanks purpleinopp. I'll wait for it to bloom to figure out which Tradescantia I have. When does it bloom?

Does anyone know the name of the second image? Maybe a sedum of some kind?

Happy to suggest. IME with T. sillamontana, it's more of a late-summer through fall bloomer (solid pink blooms.) T. cerinthoides blooms @ my house from spring through early summer (bi-color white & pink blooms.)
