    I purchased a small pot with 3 small succulents in it that I keep on my desk at work. Not sure what further info I can give since I think the pictures are pretty clear. If you do need more pics I can do that. Thank you.

    I think the short green plant in the middle is a Jade plant.

    Whatever they are... they are starved for light.

    I wouldn't think so. They are under several florescent lights for 16 hrs a day. They have grown quite Abit since I got them.

    they should be very compact not stretching for the light.

    Ahhh.. well don't think I can do much about that. Maybe I can bring a florescent clip on lamp and focus the light on them. And dhouls I clip the tops ?

    My Jade plant is sitting on a small round table in front of a west facing window. It has grown to over a foot tall in just a year or so. It doesn't take much water. I put a four cup measure of water on it about once a month. dooley

    Thank you, thank you!! I'll get more pics next time Im at work. It's pretty small. Before I leave every Friday, I put about a shot glass of water on it. It seems to be happy. How do I know when to repot them in a bigger pot,?

    The mother of thousands Kalanchoe x houghtonii will make little baby plantlets along the edge of each leaf.. They are so cute..when they fall off around the mother, they begin to grow... after a while they are thought of as a curse to greenhouse people.... LOL

    I repot plants when they become top-heavy, roots have run out of room to keep growing, &/or are drying too quickly for my schedule.
