Does it grow small white "hairs"? lol I think my plant may be a little too sick to properly identify atm 😅

#### Bb replied on 2025-04-29

No hair tufts, sorry. They get vibrant pink blooms though. Those hair tufts remind me of my dog’s ears 😂😂😂

Succulent?

#### Laylay replied on 2025-04-29

Yes I'm sorry, I probably should have said that. It's also growing little white "hairs" on it. No bugs on the plant, but it is struggling. I found it in a clearance section without a description.

Perhaps a heart-leafed ice plant or some type of cassula.

#### Laylay replied on 2025-04-29

I thought maybe a crassula at first too. I ✨️think✨️ it may be some type of anacampseros, but not sure. I found this guy in a clearance bin, he looks a bit better this morning though!

Here's an updated picture. I changed the soil last night, watered, and placed by my flaming katy's who do pretty well in this window. Idk if anyone can tell, but it looks a little better today. Still not 100% sure what this is lol I'm thinking maybe some type of anacampseros plant?

Just another update incase anyone else finds themselves wondering what they brought home from the clearance aisle. 😅 I've positively identified this guy. Anacampseros Rufescens (that's what I'm going with ATM anyway lol). Idk what the bounce back rate looks like with these guys, but he's been in a West facing windows and this is 8 days later. I'm gonna try a South facing window and see if that helps. 🤷‍♀️
