Hi, 

I have these cuttings. The leaves are pretty thick - succulent style. The cuttings got roots pretty fast.
Any idea what the plant is?
thanks

Swedish Ivy?

Plectranthus verticillatus

Looks really similar but the leaves on mine have more of a dark-green color while the Swedish ivy’s color is lighter. But maybe?

Have you any idea where you got the cuttings from?  Your garden, a park?
If we could see the plant it would help. They look a bit like Francoa but without the whole picture it’s difficult to tell.

I got the cutting from a plant planted outside on the street I can try to take a picture tomorrow

That would be a good idea. 🙂

Definitely Swedish Ivy.  I have two huge ones and the leaves are exactly the same scalloped fleshy ones in your photo.   Pinkish stems are a telltale sign of Swedish Ivy as well.

@Peggy in Texas ... I grew plectranthus Swedish Ivy as houseplants for years. The leaf colour can vary due to the amount of sunlight the plant gets, and pale leaves can also indicate that the plant needs feeding.

I had one back in my college dormitory days, but not in many years.  I love the variegated one but never see it in our garden centers.  Last March a lovely lady on my Texas Garden forum sent me some small pieces with roots from her large one (you never see them in the GC anymore as they are passé I think) and I mentioned I'd had no luck finding any at GC).  I sent her some Chlorophytum comosum (spider plants, as we call them) in exchange.  Here they are currently, on my veranda with my latest spider plant rootings:

Yea, it looks exactly as the one in the last photo! 
So I guess Swedish Ivy it is Thanks!
