Ok so i think i found some answers if anyone besides me is interested.

Ok so the first picture i think is -Kalanchoe tomentosa - Panda Plant

The second picture I think is -Crassula falcata

The third picture im pretty sure of is -Prickly Pear Cactus

The forth picture i know what it is now they are -selenicereus grandiflorus

The fifth picture says its jungle cactus i think is -Orchid Cactus (Epiphyllum Ackermannii)

And the last 2 pictures well i think they are the short spines variety of san pedro.

If any1 has any info please add to it .
Thank you.
 
Good job with those IDs!

The 3rd pic is appears to be a variegated Opuntia.

The last pics of the "San Pedro" are just the standard "P.C." or predominant cultivar clone. Do NOT propagate that clone, dispose of them in one way or another :) and get some other, good clones for cultivation!
 
Thanks for the reply coatl.

Im guessing variegated Opuntia is the strain of prickly pear you are reffering to ?
This i did not know so good info =D

As for the P.C. Pupps , i am going to keep them and grow them for identification purposes and for decoration.
I planted one of the pupps its been about 2-3 weeks now and my cat knocked it over when i picked it up for inspection and to replant there were no roots yet, Is this normal for it to take soo long for it to start rooting ?

Yes.

I root mine under a table in my grow room, sometimes they take all winter to root. Just let them sit.
