I picked up this pretty miniature noid this Summer. Mature leaves are about an inch long. I pinched off a tiny corner, the sap is clear.
Any idea please, while I am waiting for blooms....?

Oooh, that's so pretty! It reminds me of Gasteria but that's just a really wild guess because I'm not all that familiar with succulents. Smiling

If it has pairs of opposite leaves, I think it's something in Crassula genus. I can't decide about the leaves from the pics.

I posted on the cacti/succulent forum with a link back here in hopes that someone can identify the plant. I'm really curious as to the name because I love the looks of that plant!

Thanks Lin. I wasn't sure where exactly it would best.
It is a very cute little plant, and I had never come across it knowingly anywhere! Smiling

I love the clumping habit and the markings in those leaves!

Aww, Thanks for the Acorns Ursula I tip my hat to you.

Since I got 10 acorns, here is a trivia from my side; I love that one and the first time I saw it, I call it "BCC", Bacal Cells Crassula, due to the unique pattern. The embossed spots are random at the center, but they are tidily arranged palisading at the margin along with those tiny teeth. That palisading pattern is unique to some skin tumors if observed under microscope especially BCC (Basal Cell Carcinoma)

They are not striking, but they're there, (or am I seeing things...? Hilarious! Hilarious! Hilarious! )
Thumb of 2022-09-01/tofitropic/7e2378
Of course no one else calls this Crassula BCC, Hilarious! but I hope the trivial details will make you love it even more, Sorry for bringing up non gardening things, but I can't help it... I do not want to hallucinate seeing things alone.. Hilarious!
Thank you again for the acorns and discussion @Ursula

Fascinating! Now you won't be the only one hallucinating! 😄😄
I do understand, in my professional life I spent hours looking into a microscope! And I enjoyed using my microscope to look at other things non-work related as well!

@Kaktus I got one several years ago in Batam back when I still growing succulents, so I believes it is available in some cactus-succulent nursery, (I believe some Nurseries at Bandung should have them.) However most seller usually do not know the specific name, and ones must visit and check all the items available on site.

Probably Crassula tiger jade. Seen those at my local Garden Store.
Knowledge is knowing a tomato is a fruit. Wisdom is not putting it in a fruit salad. Philosophy is wondering if that means ketchup is a smoothie.
