I think I got the name now, Crassula mesembryanthemoides..such a long name....for this crassula!

Yes, that could be it. A definite possibility.

Thanks Tee for your help as well! At least your suggestions helps me think twice if I got my info right or to go on looking for the correct name I never really label my succulents before, but now I do on my laptop photos.

Btw, I have this plant called Mother of Millions - Kalanchoe delagoensis


From what I have read, some areas consider them invasive, and is said to be toxic to cattles. It does look fanciful with its little babies at its tips....some sites suggest to destroy it, while others does not really mention anything otherwise..do some of you have this plant as well, and are you keeping it in your collection?

Does that one have wide leaves??. i have one that has wide leaves and babies dropping everywhere. It doesn't quite look like that one. Is that a flower stalk. I hope you don't think I'm intruding. But I was wondering....

I have that one and I enjoy it. Couldn't grow it in KY but here in Ventura it gets real tall. I also have the babies to a dark green on with real wide leaves. Saw it at the nursery and a handful of babies accidently fell off into my hand. So of course I had to bring them home.

I will never NOT have that plant, it is everywhere in my yard. I rip them out by the hundreds....

My college Botony teacher said that the diffination of a "weed" is:
"Any plant growing were you don't want it"

Hi Charleen..oh no..you are not intruding hehehe...and as to the plant, they are not flowers, it is the babies, so far mine does not sport wide leaves, maybe because of the length of full sun it gets? My sideyard does not get 8 hour full sun.

Hi Hetty, yeah, I guess the little ones are easily dispersed everywhere My plant is growing taller, I guess trying to catch the sun as much as it can.

Now to destroy or not to destroy...I have no pets in my house, but our community is near farmlands...I just hope I will not add to the cattle woes.

Wow, that's a lot of babies on that plant tarev. Just don't let them escape.

They do try to escape But they fall on the marble rock mulch or on the paver, so I can easily pick them up and either toss them to trash or put back in the pot. I notice they tend to go dormant when it gets colder, so it helps in controlling their growth habits at times

Nice Kalanchoe delagoensis, tarev. I've never had that one, just K. daigremontiana (also called Mother of Thousands). I just bought another one of those at our Master Gardeners' Fall Plant Sale last weekend but it's a wee baby just yet.

Just going around the garden...took a photo of this succulent..I believe it is commonly called jelly bean sedum..has occupied half of the horizontal container that she is in..



Some of them are mixed in with my other containers..and they are all thriving well too:





Little sedum dendroideum trimmings are thriving as well...
Came from this mother plant:


And the little trimmings:

Awesome Sedum rubrotinctum (Jelly Bean or Pork and Beans Plant). I have one and love it.
How very cute your little sedum dendroideum babies are. Looks like they start easily? Also looks like you'll have lots of trading material for next spring.

Here is the plant I was telling you all about. Mother of jillions. Those babies drop all over everywhere. Had to be mean and pull them out of my Desert Roses before I brought them in. They would have taken over the pot. But plant sure is pretty. Despite her wicked ways... poor thing.

Send her to Planned Parent Hood Charleen.

Nice plants, tarev and Charlene.

It rained on and off all night and temps plummeted. It's supposed to be in the 30's tonight for three nights. I brought tender plants indoors yesterday and these succulents will roll into the garage this afternoon. But ... it will be back into the 70's next week.

Soup weather today though ... making a big pot of homemade deliciousness right now.

Ugggghhhhhh, I just came in from mowing almost 1/2 acre of lawn. DH finally figured out what was wrong with my mower. May take me a week to recover from mowing all that lawn.

Cool (60°F) and cloudy here. The plants are all very happy with the recent rains. Rain will start back up Sat. Gotta get all the yard work done before the serious rains get here.
I have most of my tender succulents indoors now, still have a few to go. Maybe I'll get those in Fri. We can go for overnight 40's to freezing weather from one day to the next. Really can sneak up on you.

Awesome plants on that rack Tee. Will they all spend the winter in the garage? Is your garage heated?

I wish I have space to haul in all my tender succulents ....haaay...I just hope for the best every winter time...

I have this Sansevieria last year which was thriving really well whole summer outdoors, and I guess I should have noted that the pot must thoroughly be well draining, but I used the self watering type, so come rainy winter time it was so soaked and almost got wiped out.

My mom-in-law told me that this is a very resilient plant, and the only plant that survived their month long flooding in Manila..so I felt reassured it will survive winter rain, what I did not consider was the low temperature levels we have here during winter, compared to the extreme heat and humidity in Manila.

Photo early Feb 2010 - had just repotted it after getting it from a local shop:


And this is what remains of that batch...slowly recovering, with a hint of new growth finally!


A learning curve for me....at least I got her back and will slowly take her indoors as the season comes into winter.

Great save tarev. It will return to it's former glory with time. Great plant.

Well, the car pays the price but at least the tender succulents are safe. The garage is downstairs mostly below grade and rarely drops below 50º in the winter. I have gro-lights in one area. We do have a carport to park the car under when hail, snow and storms threaten. But the garage is for storage. Right???

Lynn, I can roll that plant shelf trolley into the garage and back out into the sunlight on warmer days since it's on wheels. I have just enough space to slide it on in. If there is a fire or emergency, forget running out the garage to safety though unless you're an Olympic hurdler.


This is the gro-light end right now.



And then there's the Living Room and Dining Room.
