I would say the first is Echeveria 'Imbricata', the second Echeveria purpusorum and the third Graptopetalum paraguayense.
Obsessive Crassulaceae lover, especially Aeoniums but also grow, Aloes, Agaves, Haworthias and a select number of Cacti.

The third one looks to be Graptopetalum paraguayense.

One of my cats knocked it down and the top part broke off!juster wrote:Hi Kirsty, I agree with James for one and three. I think the second one is also an Echeveria, possibly purpusorum, but it seems to be growing unevenly, possibly it is not in very good light?

Yes that would explain it! Our cat is banned from the greenhouses, although she will sneak in if I forget to put the trellis in the doorway.
