A Kalanchoe, an Aloe, an Agave and an Opuntia

Post by Brunãozinho »

Hey you all, these are some succulents I haven't been able to identify by myself yet.
Any help is appreciated.

1 - I know this Kalanchoe is common, but I don't know the species.

2 - A small Aloe. Maybe a hybrid? I'm not familiar with Aloes.

3 - I bought this species as Agave parryi 10 years ago. They never get to the size of the Agave parryi I see on pictures online.
Could it be that this is the truncata variety?

4 - An Opuntia with an interesting mutation. I have no idea if this plant is common overseas. Haven't seen other pictures of it yet.

Olá! :)

1. To me, Kalanchoe fedtschenkoi is this one with pink on the leaves.

2. Aloe arborescens should be this one instead:

3. I think either you or 7george are right. :)

4. Should be that!

Thanks!
