    Okay, I think I got into some "plant addiction"

    Help in identifying them and how to take care for them is greatly appreciated.

    Plant 1:A succulent cabbage?

    1., 2. looks like an Echeveria hybrid
    3. Pteris sp. (P. ensiformis?)
    4. Claude Monet: Water lilies (Good chois! He is one of my favorite artists! :)))

    Thanks for your help!

    I went around searching the web and confirm the two plants are:

    1: Echeveria shaviana
    2: Pteris ensiformis cv. Evergemiensis

    Just a quick note, it's definitely E. shavianna, just letting you know it's an Echeveria that prefers shade and limited sun.

    No worries, I got a few Echeveria some years ago and have a couple of this one, they've just finished flowering. I'll attach a picture so you can see what you have to look forward to :} I kind of really like this Echeveria for some reason.
    Water when dry and very well drained soil the same as other succulents, just find a cooler shady spot to keep it happy.
