Was just gifted this prop but the lady said she didn’t know what the plant was called that it came off of. This app says is an African milk cactus but I’m not entirely sure that’s right. I need to know how to plant it in the soil - if it needs to lay down how I have it already or if I need to let it sit straight up. Anybody have any ideas?

I also have it in a pot with 2 mothers of millions \& 1 mother of thousands, which is another reason I would like to know what it is so I can remove it if need be. 😭

I think it’s a red dragon. They root easily and grow like crazy in the right conditions. Mine gets covered in red star like flowers several times a year
