Hi everyone.

I have a very hard time differentiating between these. Can you help? While they all look different in terms of coloring, the structure of #1, #2, and #4 seems to be exactly the same. Same thickness in leaves, growth patterns, etc. #1, #2, #3 are all outside and receive full afternoon sun. Yet, they are not the same color! The structure of #3 is a bit different ... I think.

#4, the poor baby, was my most beautiful one ... It was on the porch and birds got to it, eating its leaves looking for water and killing several. It's hard to believe there was a canopy of graptopetalum filling that pot in April. Now it just looks sick. This one is greener because it was on a covered porch, where it received direct morning sun and just bright outdoor light the rest of the day.

I moved all my spiny cactus to full all day sunlight and they are doing well. I am thinking of moving some of the succulents to afternoon sun where #1, #2 and #3 are, acclimating little by little. I know they can't all take that Caribbean sun.

Thank you for your help.
