How you like this Hairly Friend of mine???
Snow Pole
Espostoa i (?)lanata
This is why I have a time in database...My brains about as fuzzy as this fella....

Tarev, do you have two separate plants in that pot? If your bloom photo is correct we do know that it isn't Graptopetalum paraguayense. The mystery deepens.

Charleen here is a great link for more information on your great cactus. Is there an entry in the database yet for that one? http://cactiguide.com/cactus/?...
Oh boy, there is Charleen and no information or photos yet. You can get a lot of acorns for filling in the information and post a photo. Hurry.

O.K. Will give it a try.
Do it put in Espostoa lanata cacti???
dogs barking at nothing. Little nuts!!!

Nope just one plant in that pot.....snaky snaky succulent....maybe a different Graptopetalum...could it be Graptoveria Fred Ives??

OOps big oopps...so sorry, I was reviewing my old photos and came across photos taken on Feb 2010, so it seems I have put 2 plants in that pot..and they got so entwined together...these were their photos at that time...so maybe better ID...sorry for the mix up..!!

It looks like it very possibly is Graptoveria 'Fred Ives'. Graptopetalum and Graptoveria are two different things.

Lynn, I got it in there. thanks. Dave helped me.

I have been collecting these succulents, did not really bother with their actual botanical names hehehe, just love to see them thrive, and now I am getting to know them better :-)

I have this other succulent, and as always no name..anyone knows her?

Yes, that's Euphorbia flanaganii.

Here's the one I rescued lat year from a big box store. It was a mess. A recent shot of the same plant is in the ATP database .

Wow, that is neat. Would love to have a piece of that one.
Lynn, I put the Cacti in the datebase and also a picture of my String of hearts.

How do you enter plants in the database? Please & thank you.

Good going Charleen, I knew you could do it.

Faye, click on the Plant tab at the top of the page. Once there type into the search box the plant you want to enter a photos for. Be sure you type in the correct name. If the plant already has a listing click on it. At the bottom of the page you will find Adding Actions and Editing Actions. Click on the function you want to do. Like add a photo.
If there isn't an entry yet you can create an entry. Click on Plant tab at top of page then click on Add a new plant to the database and follow the instructions. And you get acorns for having fun adding information and photos.

Charlene, are you talking about wanting a piece of the E. flanaganii? If so, I can fix you up with that. (I love people who love succulents)

Oh Yes< I'd love it!!! I love plant lovers like, myself. If you want a start of anythig I post and I got extras, just hollar!!!!

Some new cuttings of Euphorbia milii I just potted up. (Does anyone ever pot down?? ) I'm kidding, of course.





I luv those Medusa Head plants like Tarev's E. flanaganii and also the E. caput-medusae. For some years I collected things without much attention to the names either. Just bought what I liked. Then I discovered I really liked and appreciated knowing the botanical names. It has saved me some confusion over the years, if nothing else. And I need all the help with that I can get.

Nice String, Charlene.

Got plenty, want to try a string??

valleylynn said: Tarev thank you for coming and posting your wonderful succulent photos.
Can you tell us the name of the next to the last photo? Very interesting. Anyone here know the name?

Hi there! I think I have found the name of the plant in question finally, it is called Crassula alpestris.

Tarev can you give us a post number? If you go to the link the photo is in and click on the pots # in the bottom right of the post. That will open a window, copy the url and past it in a new post here. We will be able to click on it and see the photo your are talking about.

Oh, I found it.

And I believe you have the correct ID for it. Crassula alpestris, great plant.
Now you can go type that name into the Plant Database and add your photo. It will be the very first one entered.
Then you can fill out the plant details and any comments you want to make about the plant. Wow, you will get a bunch of acorns for this one. Can't wait to see it when you get it all filled in with information and photos.

Yup, I have posted the photo in the database
