Hi, I love succulents & would love to learn more. Have finally moved to our farm & can't wait to get our garden going.

Help me identify this plant. Found these at my dads, totally neglected. Brought them home, threw in some dirt & now they’ve got buds everywhere.

Thanks @Izzy90. I’ll check it out. Hubby thought they were ugly when I grabbed them ☺️

What's he think now it's flowering? 😀

It hasn’t quite come out yet but he doesn’t think it’s quite as ugly. Oh & it’s not the crab one. The ‘leaves’ aren’t flat. They’re more like a cactus but no spikes

I think this is Zygo 'Christmas Cactus'

@ivedel24 it doesn’t have flat leaves like a zygo. I’ve taken another photo hoping to show the shape. Unless a zygo can change shape. Maybe once the flower comes out it’ll be easier.

@brightcolours finally!! It is an Easter Cactus of sorts. Could not for the life of me find it in that list 🤦🏽‍♀️
