I think I made a mistake.😬 I bought these three together on sale. They were all so small when I planted them. So I put them all together. They grew way quicker than I thought they would. Thinking about repotting them but I really like how they all look together. I’m thinking of using this wider pot. Or should I just plant them all separately?
You can definitely go with the wider pot. Their roots are probably all tangled together now anyways, so all you have to do is make sure they have enough resources, so they don’t have to outcompete each other.

They do look super cute together! And as long as they have the same watering and light requirements I don’t think keeping them together will cause any issues. Does the pot you want to use have a drainage hole? I would be a bit scared to put cactus/succulents into a pot without one. Otherwise I think a wider slightly shallow pot is a really good idea. It will give them more space above the ground to spread out a bit. 🪴 💚

Ms Issy said everything I thought… Do it! I’m also doing some repotting therapy today 😊 I had a triad in a similar situation. Hayworthia, Hoya Kerrii, and an Echeveria like yours. But the Hayworthia and HK like/tolerate more water than the Echeveria and eventually the Echeveria succumbed to root rot. The Hayworthia and HK get new terra cotta pots today! I am attempting to water prop the Echeveria.

The jade could be a problem. It’s watering needs are probably more than the other two. You can try it and if it doesn’t work out, just replace the jade. Along with the drain hole necessity, you will definitely need a fast draining soil because you are placing them into a much larger planter. It should be mostly grit with low percentage of organic soil. Usually echeverias and cacti work well together.
Beautiful!!

I keep all my succulents planted together, not exactly the same as cacti and jade plants but it should be fine as long as the soil drains well enough and you have ample drainage holes on the wide pot. You can also slowly and gently water right at the base of the jade if the cactus is fine on water but the jade gets thirsty to avoid overwatering the cactus
