    Gosh, I got such great results IDing the last succulent I thought I see if our experts could help with this one. Sorry, it hasn't flowered. It is just beginning to hang as its stems get longer.
    It was part of the trade that the Dragon Flower came in. One little piece multipling.

    I think Calin could be right but we won't know for sure until/if it flowers for you as there are quite a few varieties of Strapelia.

    Thanks Eileen and Calinromania. You are both awesome. Now I have a general idea and just have to wait for blooms :-D

    Another gorgeous unique plant you have there Jewell!
    I bet they are real eye-openers in person... especially with blooms.

    I have one like this. It's blooms kind of look like the Easter Cactus (Rhipsalidopsis gaertneri).

    That will be great to have a bloom like that. Kind of excited to see what it will do now :-D
