Beautiful, @Stush ! In your 2nd pic, what is the bloom stalk in the upper right corner? And what is the really light green plant @ the right edge in pic 2? Oscularia? So many cuties there!!!

Not a bloom stock, it is runners from Echeveria prolifica. A free gift from ordering on line from Etsy seller. It was green but under my LED's it gotten a purplish cast to it. It spreads like wild fire I guess why the the name prolifiea. It is a year old from a tiny plant sent.
The other is Gasteria nigricans var. marmorata variegata. A tiny plant in a 1" pot from Mountain Crest Gardens.
Want a better pictures of them?

I been buying like a fool on Etsy since this lock down began. Maybe keeping my sanity that way. Or maybe not!! Hilarious!
Most are pretty good deals but that darn shipping cost and taxes kick in. And I cut off any new pups or tiny starts off any I buy and plant them up. It keeps the main plant more focused and grows better. The pups pick up in a few months and do okay as well for me. As long as I keep them babied under indoor LED lighting and care.

Yes, I'd love to see these guys more closely! Smiling I had no idea there was an Ech out there like that. How fun, glad I asked!!

I did not claim any sanity pre-pandemic, so there was not much risk of loss here on that account. Enjoyment is priceless! Hahaha!

I have a few small-ish succulents but the smallest have to be these Schlumbergera seedlings. The 'pots' are just discarded K-cups from the office machine...I peeled off the top and punched extra drainage holes in the bottom. Sticking tongue out The plants on the left are about 9 months to a year older than the ones on the right (I forget when I planted them, lol). The ones on the left are just starting to get some mature segments. Smiling

(And yes, I know these are Thanksgiving cactus and not Christmas cactus. But that was what we always called them, growing up. Sticking tongue out )

Half yes! That Ech is the cutest thing! My knees hurt from falling in love. And its' friend to the right looks wonderful too.

In the bottom left of the same pic, there's a closer view of the other plant that intrigued me. Is it this? Pink Ice Plant (Oscularia deltoides)

Thanks for the closer looks. These are great! Your pics make me think about putting shop lights over plants while they're inside for winter. I could use more corners... in more rooms...

Ohh, That was also a free gift a few years ago. A tiny little cutting that I forgot about and it's been growing like a weed. Never had a bloom that I noticed. Have no idea what it is. The other Echeveria I think is Black Prince. If you want cuttings from them, no problems. Still at same address from a few years ago?

Haworthia cooperi, sorry there's nothing for size reference but it's slightly bigger than a quarter.

I found this tiny sprig of Crassula 'Pagoda Village' broken off of a pot at the grocery store maybe a month ago. I pocketed it for kicks, and plunked it in some soil, and whaddya know -- it rooted and it's growing!
Thumb of 2021-04-21/romalu/7db508

(Its 'pot', btw, is a repurposed fruit cup. Punch a few holes in the bottom and they make excellent propagation containers!)

I think this little Echeveria is happy with its' new 1.5" pot, which is .5" bigger, moved up a few weeks ago. I don't know if it's apparent in pics yet but it looks like it's going to bloom!!

My most recent tiny plants in a wire basket. They're in that horrible peat stuff that will not come off of the roots. I knew if they stayed in the plastic pots, I would kill them. If I put them in the ground, that would kill them. Hopefully they can stay alive long enough to be propagated. I just packed the root balls into the basket with no extra soil. There is no permanent hope for these roots with this peat stuff here.
