    I bought these 3 new plants this morning and need to know what they are. I have another pic of the hanging plant if the leaves aren't clear enuf with this one pic.

    Also, with the hanging plant, it was looking like it needed water desperately so I gave it some and waited for 1/2 hr. It perked right up - for the most part. There are still lots of stems that have wilty looking leaves and they feel very soft - not as crispy as the others. There were alot of little black leaves so I don't think it got watered properly but b/c it was the only one left, I whined a bit and got a discount for it. :) I am hoping that tender loving care will keep it alive and healthy looking.

    The little tree-looking guy needs new soil and a new inner pot but I want to ID it first.

    The healthiest looking one of these 3 needs repotting as well.

    For all 3 of these, I need to know how to care for them as well as their names so any extra info I can get will be appreciated.

    Thankyou for the help. I Google searched images and I believe saltcedar is correct about the first pic. When I looked at the pic of "Pilea nummulariifolia" (aka: Creeping Charley), the veins in the leaves are exactly the same as my plant, compared to the image of the "plectranthus".
