The green spotty ones were growing in my boyfriend's brother's yard like weeds, he would just mow right over them. They are in what they were already growing in, a mix of sand and soil. The white one I pilfered from a ornamental rocky area. It may be hard to see in the picture but it does have an inch or so of stem, i think the others all had just that single rosette just larger. Any help IDing or for care much appreciated.
The one in the middle looks like Graptopetalum paraguayense, an easy-to-grow and well-behaved succulent. The other one is Kalanchoe tubiflora (or Bryophyllum delagoense, depending on what classification you follow). Commonly known as mother-of-millions, it can be a bad weed in frost-free (or mild frost) climates. Even growing it in pots is problematic, as in my experience most pot plants eventually end up old and neglected and most people then tip the soil out into the garden.
Urbangardener, Sorry, I only just noticed you are in New York, not Florida. It should not be a problem there.
thanks your right! i didn't recognize the mother of millions because i am familiar with (what I now know is) the hybrid version. for anyone intersted here's a link to pictures of both side by side: http://www.northwestweeds.nsw.gov.au/images/MofM with hybrid Bingara 8 Jul 03 web.jpg hopefully they will both survive in my limited southern exposure =)
FWIW, the hybrid you refer to in the pic (rt side of pic) at the link you gave, has been given species status now. It is now Kalanchoe houghtonii, previously named Bryophyllum 'Houghton's Hybrid'.
