I have already put the Cactus and Succulents plants I got from Kmart in bigger pots (all but one, I need to find a pot for it). They were all ready for bigger pots . The picture above is of the one that I have not re-potted and two that I did. The bigger one of the two in the same pot is the one I have had before. I just could not remember the name of it, so I started my search online. I have come across a few possible names: Velvet Rose or Hen & Chicks. However Hen & Chicks sounds sounds right to me (at least that is what was on the label on my other plant). I think Hen & Chicks is more of a “type” of plant and there is a few plants that can be called that. If you look at the smaller plant in pot with two, you will see that that plant looks very similar to the other one. It just does not have the red/pink around the edges. I do not normally put two plants in one pot but I did this time for a couple reasons: 1. I had no pots that small enough for just one plant 2. I figured since they were similar plants they could be able to live together in the same pot (but they could also share diseases which is bad). We will see how they co-habitat the pot.

I have no clue what the plant in the small pot is, but it is cool looking!

Here is a link to a picture and article about Hen & Chicks

This picture is of the rest of the Cactus and Succulent plants that were in the set. I have seen the light green (back of pot) plant before, my mother-in-law had one but it died (Hopefully mine don’t die so I can give her a cutting). I have no idea what the name of it is though. I am still looking online, but the problem with trusting information online is you never know if it is true. That is why I always try to “confirm” information off-line before I consider it truth.

The one in the front (on technically the right side of pot, but it is the left side of the pot when you are looking at the picture) is really cool. I have never seen it before. It is one of the plants that made me buy the set. The bubble like leaves seem to be fill with goo like an aloe plant.

The last plant is another one that I have not seen before and I am still looking for the name.

If you think you know the name of any of these plants, please leave a comment.
