Well,

That's quite a good starter collection. I think you might benefit from a good general book on growing succulents. I'm sure a local library would have one. From my rusty memory of these plants, I would say:

top row: 1,2. Orbea species (a stapeliad); 3,4 : Huernia pillansii (monstrose form) (another stapeliad)

2nd row: Kalanchoe species (jade plant relative)

3rd row: 1: same as above; 2, 3: Haworthia fasciata

4th row: 1,2: Pleiospilus bolusii (an ice plant)

5th row: 1,2: same as above; 3,4: Pachyphtytum species (or possibly xPachyveria) (jade plant relative)

6th row: 1: same as above; 2: Sedum species (jade plant relative)

Beware your screen resolution with this one. I viewed this page in 1280x1024, which diplays 2 rows of 5 pictures, 1 row of four and the last or fourth row has one. Douglas obviously uses a different resolution, I suspect 1024x768. So if you are having difficulty understanding which picture Douglas is referring to, try changing your screen resolution.

PS. correct spelling: Pleiospilos bolusii
