    I have had this succulent for several years. Every year it blooms about this time of year. Can anyone identify this plant? I have attached three pictures.

    This is one of those plants that goes to show you why you cannot rely on plant shape to determine plant family. They are done based (mainly) on flowers and fruit for a reason.
