Hard to tell for me. I always get C. humulis and C. hypogaea mixed up when they're that small...

Thank you very much, Lactus.

I had a C. hypogeae lizard skin once, so in my mind C. hypogeae is different from C. humilis (but maybe lizard skin is different from "normal" ones).

Now I'll try to find out the differences between hypogeae and humilis and try to identify my plant.

Thank you very much

I lean toward C. humilis, but they are similar.
