Last fall I bought a bag of little succulent/sedum cuttings. This was one of them that has grown a lot inside over the winter. The largest leaves are about 1" long and 1/2" wide. They are maybe 1/8" thick. Any ideas?

To me, it looks like Trailing Jade (Senecio jacobsenii).

I went out and took a photo of my plant so you can see what it will look like. The leaves turn a purple color in high light and it has a pretty little flower:

lol. Sometimes I just like the old names better. Who says you can't teach old dogs new tricks, er, names. I eventually get used to them. Hilarious!

LOL, I have trouble getting used to new names. When I take a photo of a plant I go through the folders on my laptop to add the photo and I get frustrated because usually I can't find it under the "original" name ... I can never seem to remember the "new" name and I'm lazy and don't want to scroll through hundreds of folders even though they are in alphabetical order! *Blush* So, now I have a folder named Senecio and there are a few folders within the main folder and the plant above is listed there as S. jacobsenii with K. petraea in parentheses.

It's highly unlikely the plant in question is a Trailing Jade.

--- Leaves of the plant in question are arranged opposite
--- Leaves of Trailing Jade are arranged alternate

@Leftwood

Rick: Thanks so much for pointing that out! Hopefully someone more familiar with succulents will pop in and be able to identity the plant in question.

I posted over on the cactus and succulent forum with a link back here so maybe those who grow succulents will be able to help!

Perhaps a peperomia? I'll be anxious to see what it is.

LOL Tee ... I am not good at all comparing photo's and sometimes forget to click to enlarge a photo and most always forget to look closely at leaf arrangement. *Blush*

Thumbs up Funny, I do the same thing. Duh, Tee, enlarge the photo and even use zoom. What a concept. There's nothing like eye-balling it, though. Growing conditions can make such a difference.
