Odontophorous and Cieridopsis Ciggaretifera now flowering.
These and ihlenfeldtia are the only chieridopsis I can flower here. Due to our weak winter light.

Odontophorous is a winter growing mesemb with velvety leaves and hairy buds and pods.
It doesent seem to mind our cold climate and does well here.
As plants go they are quite large. (finger thickness.)

I have this one from seed, but no flowers yet. The leaf texture is nice.

I have several mature old plants from TomJ. They sure are surprisingly nice plants.
But in the last three years they have not flowered with me. I fear a lack of sunlight in the colder months is to blame, same as 1bigfruit.
