Welcome to Garden Guides new Cacti and Succulent Forum. Isn't this neat?

Here's picture of one of my unknowns.

Witt.......when I first viewed this I thought it was like one of mine...so I ran outside to quick take a pic.......now I am not so sure...mine is bigger leaved and darker red.......although that could be due to the southern exposure......I will try and post it here....mine is on it's 3rd year in the flower bed on south side of house....... my friend gave it to me...a slip off hers...please excuse the cammera shadow.....I couldn't get it without a shadow....... Any ideas of what this is? Birdie

Isn't this hilarious? We finally have a succulents section and we don't know a thing. It peculiar how both of ours look somewhat like a eucalyptus. Yours is a wee bit different than mine. Maybe we'll find us an expert on here yet!

About all I can do to a cactus or succulent is watch them die. Just not my thing I guess. Except for my Christmas Cactus. Those have always been my favorite cactus.

Glad we finally have a special thread for this subject though.

Oh, yes, Kitty! You must! You must!
It's really not too difficult. Take the picture and save it to your pooter. Then when you reply or post, just click on Add Photos. Click, browse, go to where you saved the picture and click. It will upload it for you.

I can't wait to see some more succulents!

Birdie, your hens and chicks look great! I like the way they have spread out.

RR, I love that second one in the pix. Do you know the name of it?
