Hi!
Would you be able to help me identify this plant? I bought it at a local store with succulents but there was no tag. Now that it’s bigger I absolutely love it and need to know what it is in case it dies lol. Please let me know if you need additional pictures.
Thank you!

Senecio
by: Jacki Cammidge, Certified Horticulturist
I’m pretty sure this is Senecio decaryi, no common name that I know of. Gorgeous plants! Here is a link to an image search; https://www.bing.com/images/search?q=Senecio+Decaryi&form=IRIBIP&first=1&tsc=ImageBasicHover
One thing to look for (which doesn’t show in the pictures) is fine pin-striping down the leaves. If it doesn’t have this, maybe it’s something else. Flowers would be a defining characteristic; they would be yellow and daisy-like.
You should be able to propagate it easily, they root quickly.
