Succulents in my front garden dilemma
Responding to @RJG’s #WhatTheSuccWednesday post but thought it deserves a post in itself. All of these lovelies are in my front garden. Have not figured out to get them onto my Greg, especially my succulent arrangements. So I’ll just have to feature them in a post and give them some Greg love. #SucculentSquad #PlantsMakePeopleHappy #HappyPlants #intheground

@sarahsalith thank you dear! Do you have any idea what that very last one is? I got it from my MIL and it is one of my faves. It’s a crassula, and HUGE jade of some kind, but I can’t find the botanical name. So big, some leaves are the size of my palm. Any ideas? @strawberrymoon, @vvvelo , @Hypsie @Gordo? I can’t find it in nurseries or Google.
@HotSubclover awww, thank you!
@sarahsalith no, those are actually kalanchoe.

@Gamma4-3 thank you! @Shellmonator just gave me the answer. It’s a Cotyledon orbiculata oblonga ‘Marantha’ pigs ear succulent.
@BossChayote thx!
@vvvelo @sarahsalith, @Shellmonator just send me the answer I’ve been searching for! https://worldofsucculents.com/cotyledon-orbiculata-oblonga-macrantha-green-pigs-ear/ @vvvelo you got it too, but now I have the full name.
@calvina So it was a pigs ear!
@calvina if you have an iPhone, I can tell you how to identify (or find Siri’s best guess) pictures of plants and animals!
@Shellmonator would love ur technique. I currently do it with Google.
@calvina k! If you select a picture of one plant from your album, down at the bottom of the screen next to the trash can there’s the information button. It’s a lower case i with a circle around it. If there are “sparkle marks” on the circle, then Siri has an idea what it could be! Click it, then click Look Up (plant) and it’ll give you some options to choose from!
