A couple weeks ago I stole this plant from the library.

Only thing is apart from it being a succulent, I have no idea what it is or how to care for it. Do you know what it's called???

(I'm talking of the plant in the middle, the pale green blobs on pale green stems.)

(To the left is my tomato plant!!! It grew from a seed that had already germed inside a tomato I ate around Christmastime...)

Neige can't tell much about it until it leafs out some.

It is weird. The rest of the plants in the pot looked exactly the same, no taller. GC told me it's just because they weren't getting properly cared for, but I'm wondering if that isn't just what they look like... After a bit of research I found that it looks like plants of the "Sedum" genus of the Crassulaceae family, but haven't found any pics of plants that look like the ones I have...

Yep. I'd agree on the hens and chicks. Looks like a little offshoot may have started itself. The legginess may be from poor lighting in the library? Have to wait and see.

That's ^^^ the one to know.

It's hard to say with it still being so small, but back in the 70's and 80's in the area I lived at the time, there was popular houseplant that we had .... I think we called them "String of pearls" ... which had lon vines of small green pods that hung down from the planter. This looks like it could be something similar ... but since I haven't had even a silk plant (let alone a living one) in my home for over 20 years, I'm not sure that I'm likely to be much help beyond that!

I saw pics of those^^^ fzzy, only they were called Donkeys' or Burros' Tails. I did almost suspect my plants of being those, but they need to grow some before they become "tails" or "strings"!
