    Is this an opuntia? Can I revive it?

    Here's another photo taken today, to show how much happier it is looking after some extra watering - amazing how quickly the leaves have straightened up and got greener and plumper and shinier....

    Donkeys Tail - saveable ?

    I'd always grow semperviviums outside, they get bloated and out of character under glass I find. Looks like a few Echiveria there as well, maybe a Haworthia?
