Portulaca, molokiniensis is a unique succulent. It has corky stems with fleshy, round leaves and upright growth. Orbea molokiniensis is a multi-branched succulent. This forms a mat from thick fleshy procumbent, or erect stems. The teeth are long and conical. Plectranthus prostratus (Pillow Plant), a small succulent, has creeping, many-branched stems and small, light-green leaves. Rhytidocaulon microlobum, a small succulent, has light to dark brown branched branches that turn grayish-brown with age.

Your new succulent should be watered the same way as your other plants. This will continue until next spring/summer when it's time to get more. It needs to sit in the water for at least 24 hours, though a little more would be better. Two weeks is required to water a newly planted barrel. Place the plant in a tray or shallow dish filled with water. Water it until the roots are covered. You can add it to salsa or tacos as a side-dish. Young pads of approximately 4-8 inches are needed for Mexican dish nopales.

The first winter frost-damaged succulent is Agave Attenuata. Encouraging better flowering requires a cooling period in winter. Native American plants, such as cacti or agaves (or to northern climates like many of the sedums/sempervivums), tend to flower better than South African and Madagascar-based plants (kalanchoes/aeoniums, crassulas). The Kalanchoe that gets the most sunlight will prosper. The damage you have done will be almost invisible when it's over.
