Posted By: Anonymous What are these succulents I got from Jiffy? - January 7th, 2007 at 04:54 AM
Anyone know? Succulents have never really been my thing, but these are cool. The white thing is some kind of fuzzyish cactus, and the spiky thing reminds me of pinhead from hellraiser. laugh

Thanks! kissies

i'm curious as to what the two leafy things are...i have them too (and posted bad pics which no one has responded to Duh )

i think the one MAY be a type of jade, as mark mentions, just not sure tho.

i kinda like that one too loz. i kept one of those.

they are all from my 10 cent succulent collection. 10 cents per plant. and the one is definitely a jade, but i don't know what variety.

I still can't believe you got them for 10 cents....That white cactus thing, I went to a site last night that was selling them for $25. shk

laugh laugh

It also said it's a super slow grower....I believe it said 2 feet in 10 years. shk That's fine with me though, last thing I need is a huge cactus in my house. laugh

They flower too, and the "fur" hides the sharp pricklys underneath.

Hi loz,
The white furry one looks to be some type of pincushion cactus ... here's a link with some nice pics:
