Can anyone identify these little succulents please?

[yoink]

Because Google is not helping!

[NanTheWiser]

The left one is probably Sedum 'Burrito', a form of Sedum morganianum, the middle one is An Echeveria, possibly 'Perle von Nurnberg', the right one could be Crassula ovata - aka the money plant. The Echeveria and Crassula have suffered from being kept in low light levels- they are etiolated, and need to be kept in as much sun as you can muster, to attain their true form, but do it gradually so as not to scorch them! I grow these plants in a greenhouse in full sun, as they would do in habitat.

[yoink]

oh thank you so much!

So a window sill would be best perhaps?

How often should I water them?

[NanTheWiser]

Oh yes, yoink, a windowsill is a MUST! South facing if possible - these plants need all the sun they can get! As for watering, well, succulents are adapted to survive dry conditions - they store water in their leaves and stems, so overwatering can easily lead to rot and ultimately death. The usual advice is to water once the pots have dried out, so in the summer that probably means once a week - if in doubt, don't! Winter is a little different, because if kept in a warm room they will still need to be watered, but less frequently, say once every 3 or 4 weeks.
In my greenhouse which goes down to 5C in the winter, nothing is watered between October and March, as they stop growing and enter dormancy - but inside a house you'll have to continue, but carefully!
If the Echeveria is 'Perle von Nurnberg' (and I suspect it is, many are sold through Wilkos, and DIY sheds) , this is a pic of mine which shows how it looks when grown in a greenhouse with full sun.

Nan, that is GORGEOUS! Thank you so much for the advice. So I'll put it on a south facing sill.

They feel completely dry and really light, so I'll give them a wee bit of water too.

I really appreciate your advice, thanks again!

[NanTheWiser]

You're welcome! Hope they do well for you.

This is my 'Perle von Nurnberg' beauty on my living no room window sill. About a handspan wide.

[Aridane]

(well, it might not be - but that's what I was assuming it was - unlabelled - picked up from a market stall)

[NanTheWiser]

I'm not stalking you Ariadne, honest! It could also be E. 'Purple Pearl' which is very similar (A hybrid of 'Perle von Nurnberg' I think) which is a slightly darker form, but this is the problem when buying unlabelled plants - and so many sold in garden centres and other outlets are often wrongly labelled too.

[Aridane]

Ooh, Nan, are you a professional grower or exhibit or something? or do,you just a have a knowledge of and passion for succulents?

[NanTheWiser]

No, not a professional grower, but I've been growing cacti & succulents for over 40 years and have 2 large greenhouses full! I used to exhibit at National level years ago, successfully, but getting too old to hump heavy trays of plants around now!
A passionate enthusiast though...

[percheron67]

NantheWiser I am keen to have cacti - do you know of any seed or leaf/cutting swaps clubs please?

[NanTheWiser]

No clubs as such, percheron, but there is the national society - the British Cactus and Succulent Society which has branches all over the country, usually meeting once a month. It's about £15 to join the society, and you will then a quarterly journal CactusWorld, and a seed list that comes out in December. The meetings are good to go to, as there are usually members who sell spare plants at low cost, and the talks given by enthusiasts are very informative.
There is also a Facebook group for the British Cactus and Succulent Society, where lots of newbies post with their latest acquisitions and problems, if that appeals to you.
