Help me identify this plant #idplant I need HELP. I'm not sure if I should have planted all three together like that.

All of these Succulents are compatible in the same pot. Their light, water, and heat needs are similar. For ID's, @Muzz67 @alovealoe @hazec ?

Possibly Fairy castle cactus The other two are a bit tricky to tell in this pic but yes all succulents have the same care requirements. Cacti probably need slightly less water than the other 2 but they should be fine together 😆

Thanks!! @lovestogarden @cyndi @muzz67 😚 The one on the right, the heavy bottom leaves started to fall off but the newer, greaner ones are doing great. Thanks again for all the help.

I would separate the plants. The aeonium goes dormant in the summer while the other two will be growing. They all should be outside and they would do much better in a cactus mix soil. The one you have now looks very organic and may cause rot.

@alovealoe I was worried about that. Which one is the aeonium? I just bought a few more succulents and dont want to make a mistake!😳

I think the back left one is Aeonium and yes they will go better outside
