Indeed it does!
Clearly there's no hard and fast answer...
It's a topic I wrestle with a lot in my mind...
My collection now consists of mainly tropicals, elephant ears to be exact, I can't imagine a more succulent plant, they are over 85% water!
Yet c&s culture would kill every single elephant ear that exists!
I felt at one point that I'd abandoned succulents, having focused on tropicals since my return to the ornamental plant world...then it dawned on me, I'd neglected the desert succulents, but had amassed many a tropical succulent in my EE and bananas...
Again, crush a stem( petiole) of either plant, wipe off the copious amounts of juice quick, it'll burn you, but then tell me that plant is not of a succulent nature!
I dare ya!😋
