I bought this little guy for $4 under assorted tropicals alongside a syngonium and a Moses-in-the-cradle baby. I’m looking for it’s name and care tips. They did tell me to use succulent soil and let it dry out in between, but I’d love the name!
Thanks!

Looks like Crassula multicava more than anything else.
Here’s an image search; https://www.bing.com/images/search?q=cassula+multicava&form=HDRSC2&first=1&tsc=ImageBasicHover
Is that what it looks like to you?

Possibly Crassula multicava
by: Shanea Estes
They do look similar when looking through the image search. Mine seems much more spread out from leaf to leaf. The leaves do seem to bud the same, yet mine looks more like a vine than a bush like the image search shows.

Wait

If it blooms, that would be a definitive characteristic. Get it outdoors for the summer, when it warms up enough, and maybe it will bloom. The longer internodes could be that it wasn’t getting enough light to keep them short – it needs intense sunlight for best growth.

Baby’s Tears

I asked what this plant was recently and I believe I found its name today! Baby’s tears. I happened to be scrolling Facebook and found one similar.
