this is definately a succulent, the plant i'm speaking of- if that helps.

most probably some type of crassula

Maybe it's a Kleinia obesa (Senecio deflersii) One I used to have.

Common names....this is a very good example of the confusion they cause, huh? I sure wouldn't have thought it would be a succulent...I was expecting a cactus. :o)

Amen.

it does kinda look like a cactus tho...maybe its a cross breed :).
