I was given these three plants a few years ago by a woman who did not know what they were and could not get them to grow. They have done very for me but I still have no idea what they are and would really like to know. They are very nice plants and propagating well and I am spreading them throughout other pots and plants. This is what the plants originally started out like, though much smaller than this start...
The second plant is this one, this woman gave me like five of these in a little 3 inch pot or so. I was unable to get them to grow very well at all until I transplanted them and some pieces broke off the main plants. I planted the broken off pieces and they started growing and grew well beyond that of any of the original plants. I have propagated these into hundreds of plants now and they are great plants. Again I have no idea what they are.... They are a succulent of some type is all that I know. These are some amazing plants, very hardy in fact near impossible to kill really. They propagate easily from cuttings or even from individual leafs. They also tend to sprout new plants from near surface roots. They grow the most amazing color of flowers and flower all year long. They make a great addition to plant boxes, but I would really like to know what the heck they are...
I can't help with the first but the second reminds me of Kalanchoe from the shape of the leaves. I'm sure that someone else will be along to help with the IDs :-D
Thank you... thank you... thank you...... definitely kalanchoe..... seems to go by orange kalancho cannot find a specific scientific name as yet, but is that is good enough.
Ohh heck yea..... I finally found the other one now... and interestingly the picture originates from this forum.... http://www.bing.com/images/search?q=pre ... tedIndex=0 It is known as (pregnant onion) Family : Hyacinthaceae Species: longibracteatum Genus : Ornithogalum I did a search for long leaf flowering houseplant bulb and found a post of another person trying to find out what the plant was... luckily someone posted a response and I was able to find out what they are finally...
