Can anyone help me Identify these, I know they are some kind of Trichocereus spp., I bought them from local nursery and that was what they were labeled as.

Not sure on the variety, was thinking maybe cuszcoensis but would love to know what you all think.

Looks more like Browningia hertlingiana then Terscheckii IMO

@ONandONandON It could be a jujube tree? I thought it looked like a date at first but they grow on palms.

Poppy mix that I planted. Didn't get any nomenclature with them. I am expecting others but perhaps they don't show up this year.Any ideas?

Hey, anyone has seen this plant before? Unidentified (very likely) Psychotria species from Costa Rican lowlands. About 4-5 feet tall.
My apologies for using imgur, attachments never work well for me:
Unknown Psychotria

I don't know but I want one!  :-*

Leaves look kinda like Mitragyna to me more than Psychotria.  No idea what it might be.  Very cool though!

Well, I am not really sure what it is, but my best guess is Psychotria. Stems and leaves are very similar to Psychtria elata, which I know. Inflorescences are radically different though, but also resemble some other Psychotrias. I took a plant and cuttings home because I wanted this beauty in my garden. PM me if you want cuttings.

Made an order with Heavenly Products in late 2015 and as they always do, they threw in a freebie.  I didn't expect much, it was literally just a dried out stick.  Put it in a pot and come spring it went nuts, what is it?  Usually HP says review what we are offering as freebies and figure it out, however after reviewing the list I concluded, this particular 'prize' wasn't on there. 

It was a stick, like a draceana cutting.  The leaves are more like aloe but softer and so far no flowers but plenty of pupping.  Like draceana, it can take tons of neglect.

Thanks Acacia, Im not sure.  The reading I am now doing on tree aloe is that the bark is grey  and smooth, this has a more beige and palmate (like the draceana which sorta peels away) texture.

Perhaps it gets smoother and grey as it ages? Although the picture in this wiki post looks spot on except for the bark/trunk...

I found this small succulent growing in bone dry beach sand near the ocean in 90 degree heat on South Padre Island. Thought it might be some type of delosperma, but the flower doesn't look right. Any one recognize it? Sure is a tough little guy whatever it is.

Looks like Portulaca.

Good call! I think it is Portulaca pilosa. Common name "kiss me quick".
