NP with asking to ID more plants (just if you do more, it is best to number them).

First is probably xGraptoveria 'Fred Ives' - it pups very easy from stump or any part of stem or leaves. It is quite normal for old leaves to dry up and fall off. This plant seems to be doing it bit faster than some others. Decapitated head is still growing etiolated - plant needs much more sunlight. I just posted some photos of the same plant on this thread-click me. See the color too...

Those pots are quite interesting...but not sure if they shade plants too much? Most succulents need very good light.

I think the second one is Aloe cv Pepe.

Thanks Rina, I realized too after looking at the pics I was posting that it needed more light. I'm gonna add it to the ones on my porch that get much more sun. Thanks for the ID. I'll definitely number them in the future if I have more to post (which since I mostly buy from BBS that seems likely :))

& thanks for the post link. I checked it out and mine definitely needs some more light. I'll keep watching it to see if that's just how it loses leaves or if there's something else wrong.

I have this plant for about 4 years, and it does exactly same with the leaves.

If you give it more sunlight, make sure it is gradual (acclimatize it slowly); otherwise leaves will get sunburn - just like ppl do :) This plant will still grow longer stems as it gets older - I behead it when gangly; but you want nice compact rosette and great color.

Wantonamara, after a little looking around, it definitely looks like an Aloe cv. Pepe. Thanks!!

Rina, I'll be careful about acclimatizing it to more sun since it's been so used to lower indoor light. I'm not too sure about the funky pots either but I already had them & figured I'd give them a try a plant that seemed ok with low light & the Aloe was so small I didn't have any small pots on hand except those funky ones, but I think I'll move the Aloe to another pot anyways and see how the mystery plant does.
