    I got these two plants yesterday from a store but they didn't have any labels on them...Are they succulents and if so, what are they?

    They're pretty small, Plant 1 being 2 inches tall and 2 inches in diameter and plant 2 is larger, 4-5 inches in diameter and 2 inches in height, minus the flowers (they have thick petals). The stem+leaves of Plant 2 are furry. And one of the flower stems seems to be "falling over" because of the weight of the flowers...What should I do about that? Leave it or prop it up against something or what?

    I'm not an expert on succulents, but Google "Echeveria" and see if you've got a match.

    Ok, thanks.

    Any idea about the other plant?

    The other plant looks like it could be a Pachyphytum, maybe Pachyphytum brevifolium. Try looking it up on Google and see what you think.
