My parents have this plant which I thought was a ponytail palm but the base of that doesn’t have the bulb look to it. Anyone know what it is??

Also the base started growing this other plant. Have only seen leaves no flowers or fruit if anyone can identify both!!

    I don’t know if they are the same plant but sometimes they’re called Christmas cactus and sometimes they’re called Easter cactus

    Tall skinny dude is a Dracaena marginata. He hasn’t been getting enough light. I always kill these in the end and have had zero luck propagating them.

    The short fleshy dudes in the bottom are an epiphytic cactus, Schlumbergera sp. – I find them hard to identify correctly, many are a hybrid. These are really easy to propagate, even one of the little pads is enough.

    Christmas cactus. It will have bright fuchsia flowers. Just break off a piece and shove it in potting soil to propagate.
