Varigated seedlings
Image
Geohintonii mexicana
I grafted this one myself, the regular single headed scion crusted over, and a new crested head popped out from the old heads skin, and has a strange bottom area, that looks like its grafted onto part of the root.

Blossfeldia minima, with lots of seed.
their seedlings are so small, and grow sooo slow

Aztekium ritteri, on its own roots
