Looks like a Crassula ovata or Jade Tree to me but I am happy to be corrected by someone with more experience than myself.

Cheers

just like to add another question regarding care of this little fella, i read on the internet using the link given above that the tree is an indoor tree (tropical) i have had this tree out side since the summer, now the weather is getting a lot cold do you think its better off indoors, or out during the day providing its not freezing and back into warmth of the house of a night, not sure if this kind of scheduale would be kind to the tree.... :200unsure:

Keep it in all day until all risk of frosts are gone. Trees don't like frequent changing of conditions and will drop leaves.

Good advice as always - now a warning.

I had a similar tree, but the larger leaved version, and the trunk was almost 2" diameter. One night at minus 1 (in mid October) killed it ! It had been a present from a friend who had grown it for almost 15 years as a houseplant. Fortunately I had some cuttings, and one of the baby's is approaching the same size.
