Don't say sorry I'm sure people like a challenge :grin:

Having said that I don't "do" succulents but I'd say they all look like Crassulas but as there's some 1500 species in that family it's not all that helpful :lol:

I guessed some may be Crassulas, it's just so difficult to find a match amongst so many.
Sometimes I think I should have done the same as you re. succulents but I can't resist rescuing a poorly looking specimen when I see it.

Hi Fruit, Starting from the top.
Portulacaria afra
Crassula perforate
Pachyphytum oviferum or perhaps a Graptopetalum
An Echeveria, maybe 'Victor Reiter'
Sedum hernandezii
Crassula, maybe ovata
I have to say they are difficult to identify because they have suffered lack of light and are all stretched. Give them plenty of light and they will grow in a compact manner and look really good.
Obsessive Crassulaceae lover, especially Aeoniums but also grow, Aloes, Agaves, Haworthias and a select number of Cacti.

Thanks, that's some more solved and a few to look at closer.
Not sure about the last as C. ovata, doesn't look like another I have labelled the same but no idea of variations.

They've been sitting on a W facing window cill through winter but are now moving somewhere brighter

Of that group, I'm pretty much only collecting Echeveria, and I don't see one there in those photos...anyway, here's what my Echeveria 'Victor Reiter' looks like currently (although it can color up a lot more). It's reputed to be a cross between agavoides and cuspidata. I'll defer to all the other IDs given by Liz.

Not sure about the Pachyphytum/Graptopetalum, but I think it might be Sedum pachyphyllum.

I think I need some flowers on these, or at least grow them on a bit more in better light

Still trying to ID three of these, don't think the last is Sedum pachyphyllum, leaf shape looks wrong and can't find much info on Pachyphytum/Graptopetalum

Thay've had a lot more light and TLC since last images.

Hi Fruit

'Unknown 36' is Echeveria compressicaulis. It's a well-named species - see the stem in your photo, it does look compressed! It will form new plantlets readily from the leaves which detach easily.
