I have a thought on 3 of them because they look like plants i have. Its dark and rainy out though.

1. I am guessing some kind of Euphorbia, but not sure.
2. Dickia/Hechtia.
3. Euphorbia.
4.A cactus maybe a monstrose form reverting to some extent, the monstrose makes me think of E. lageniformis (I may have the species name wrong, and if not probably the spelling, sorry).
5. A manfreda, I think.
Yep you're correct on #2 and 5, thank you. You could also be right with 4 but its missing the penis "eye" that alot have, I'd be stoked if it was that!
Do you know what kinds of euphorbia for 1/3 though?

1. Formerly Monadenium
2. Dyckia
3. Euphorbia clavigera

JimsPlants said:Thank you all for your responses, this ended up being a really good haul for me and im especially keen to get propagating the Echinocereus!
Eh. Dont think they are that propagation friendly since its not too commnon as a genus in wholesale. Also kinda slowgrowing
Ah well, we'll see, llifle says its easy to do and my pentalophus propagates so easily. I've got 3 cucumbers off the scheeri in perlite. If it works it works if it doesn't well that's just apart of the game.
Note that your first euphorbia has seed pods! I would wrap them up if you want to collect the seeds. The seeds on some species are known to shoot up to 50 feet away from the plant.

Various plants employ explosive dehiscence to disburse their seeds. Impatiens are one with which a lot of people are familiar, and Oxalis stricta. Ruellia and Cleome also do this. I brought Ruellia inside for winter a few times and the popping sound is surprisingly loud.
The golden rule: Do to others only that which you would have done to you.
