    I'm not quite sure what these plants are. Could someone help me? The first old little plant was growing in with another plant that was purchased at a fundraising sale. The second is beleived to be an orcid cactus...grows flowers once it is bigger in size, although that may take a few years. The third was told to me to be a spider plant. I have a few of those, and none of them grew in the form of a tree like this. The last plant I was told is mother in laws tongue...but then someone said it wasnt.

    #1 Kalanchoe, maybe K.daigremontiana
    #2 Epiphyllum/orchid cactus
    #3 Dracaena, maybe D. marginata if the outer edges are red.
    #4 Sansevieria trifasciata I believe - Mother-in-law tongue/Snake Plant

    I have some of the first ones. I bought them at a garage sale and the lady said they were mother of a thousands but didnt tell me the specific type. I googled K.daigremontiana and got some that looked like these and some that looked like something totally different.
