What a selection!

Your Diplosoma is awake already? I have the other species and no sign yet.

Maybe you can tell Christer how to grow Antimimas because I sure don't know! They seem to be a law unto themselves.

Your L. amicorum must be nearly 3 years old now? Mine coming up to 2 years didn't produce a single flower, and to be honest I didn't really expect them to. Next year! I was tickling L. hermetica today but that's been around for donkey's years

Are positive that flowering L. divergens is var amethystina? Looks a lot like var divergens, not that you see it very often.

The flowering L. divergens is probalby v. divergens, and the one on the right is v. amethystina

I got my L. amicorum from Steven Hammer, so yes they are about 3-4 yo
The third one is staring to bloom, so I hope I can scrape some pollen from the other flowers that are now faded.

Only one Diplosoma has awakened, I still have hope for 3 more that haven't budged.

I don't have much problems with Atimima, and have alborubra, they grow like weeds here, except need a dry summer.
The small ones like fenestratum are much easier to kill.

Lithops verruculosa "Rose of Texas"

Lithops dinteri "dintergreen"

Lapidaria Collection

Conophytum marginata

It doesn't look like C. x marnierianum which is a natural hybrid between C. ectypum and C. bilobum with flowers in strong orange to red shades and sometimes bicolors. It generally has leaves with strong keels.

Cure how the 'Dintergreen' still has green buds even though the bides have browned out in the sun,

I checked the tag, C marginatium or spelled something like that

Nice plants and flowers.

I love the Huernia kennediei!

There is a Conophytum marginatum and it has this sort of appearance.
