No. 2 is neither Pseudolithops nor Lithops. But what is it ... a Cerochlamys mimicking a Pleiospilos?

#2 is Pleiospilos, but I don't know which species...perhaps simulans?

What gives it away that it is indeed Pleiospilos and not Cerochlamys or any other Mesemb are the dark dots.

I've never heard of Pleiospilos before, but from the pics I've seen I don't think simulans. The leaves on mine look too plump while the simulans look fairly flat and wider.

And yes no on the Jade?

Thanks guys!

Yeah, you got the variegated Jade right on the nose.

Pleiospilos can be tough to identify, especially when young. Get in some good strong light and grow it for a year. By then, the shape of the leaves should be less generic, and the species will hopefully be more obvious. I actually think P. simulans is a pretty good suggestion, especially since yours is young, and probably a bit etiolated. The other species you might consider is P. peersii.

Yay! Right on the nose. Boop! Eheh...

Some of the pics did look like mine, but about 90% didn't...but I agree it may be too young as I've heard of other plants changing as they age. I'll grow it on and we'll se if we can't pinpoint who my new little friend is after a while.

Thanks so much!

To be exact and picky, I believe it to be a Crassula ovata, form variegated. Norma

Exact and picky is good...in certain areas at least. 'Tis be one of them.

Thanks Norma!
