# Can someone help me identify these jades (or I what I assume are…

Can someone help me identify these jades (or I what I assume are jades) neither the plant identification tool on planta or chat gpt could tell me and it has some odd growth that isn’t typical of a normal Jade, for example I pruned it because it was falling over which in hindsight I think it was supposed to do and it grew very straggly but grew a lot, the big one is the one I pruned and the small guy is the trimming that I replanted, the small one is more accurate to what it looked like at first. Thanks in advance!

they look like string of dolphins!

These ones are more tree like though, like they stand upright and grow a woody ish stem over time, another thing to note is that the tips of the leaves where a deep vibrant purple when I first got them, although my house doesn’t get enough direct sunlight for them to stay that purple

IDK about Jade specifically but I would say it's definitely some type of crassula, because it has the same sort of growth pattern like my shark tooth Pagoda and my springtime crassulas do

I wonder if it is an extremely etoliated crassula campfire?
