Help with triffid identification please :-)
Good afternoon Ladies and Gentlemen,
This is my first post and I'm not sure if I'm even in the right place....
A few years ago a friend gave us a money plant. A few years later another plant started growing in the pot. And it grew and grew and it is still growing. I have absolutely no idea what it is.
So a few piccies...

My first thought on seeing the 1st pic was 'Mother of thousands' and a quick wiki search seems to confirm this:

Hope this helps.

yup, I used to grow one when I was a kid, they're quite nice succulents, pick off the babies, pot them up & give them to friends!

I hadn't seen one of hose in years, not since my university days. Thanks for bringing memories back, Stacey.
