This is a first in a series of posts to see if you can name a cactus, tropical or succulent plant. It’s a fun thing to do as a cactus or succulent collector. When checking a name of a succulent it is easy to get confused because many succulent plants look similar to each other but due to a slight variation of leaf shape or color they have a different name within a species. The image to the right is a succulent in Adeniumrose company collection. It’s not very rare, yet  it’s one you will not see in your regular garden stores very often if at all.

This succulent plant is in a 3″ pot and the leaves get brighter the more sun it receives. The succulent leaves are thick and it can be propagated with the leaves or cutting off the babies offshoots when the plant gets bigger. It’s a fairly fast growing succulent plant that does well in bonsai or miniature cactus gardens.

Here is a second image of the succulent. The leaf color is orange to green. We have three of these in stock at AdeniumRose Company but not listed because we are propagating them at this time.

If you think you know what this one is called please post it here!
