Cacti & Succulents

Succulent ID?

11 years ago

Hi all,

I'm hoping you folks can help me out! I'm moving from Canada to the US next month and require a phyto-certificate for my house plants if I want to take them with me - wit this, I also require that I provide their scientific names. I have this (I believe) succulent, purchased at the local grocery store a few years back, and I have not been able to identify it...succulent? Sedum? Any help would be greatly appreciated!

It is Crassula mesembryanthoides. Be sure to get the spelling straight, as there are a few with similar spellings that are different plants. =)

Good luck on your move!
