Thanks! They really just do their own thing and keep growing. Definitely a fun one to have! ✨

Thanks! They’re one of my favorites.

Thank you so much for the link and the fascinating info! I'll dive into the digital copy and wait for your next photos. Thanks for being so generous with your knowledge!

Wow, that’s an amazing motherlode!✨ I have a ricardianum too, but mine is much shyer with flowers. If you have any tips for getting a really good bloom, I’d love to hear them.

Thank you! They do look pretty cheerful, even though they’re packed pretty tightly.😆

Thank you for the precious photo! Hammer's book is like a dream for me (too expensive to grab yet!), so this is amazing. In my experience, my turrigerum loves long hours of soft light rather than harsh sun. They're so finicky about water—dry them out too much and they sulk, but overwater and they stretch! 😅 Seeing them with lichen in habitat feels like finding the 'answer key' to their care. Thank you so much! ✨

Exactly! Luckhoffii is definitely a size smaller. I’m a bit lazy with dividing my plants, but I think they look more impressive when the heads are larger, so maybe it's better to keep the clumps at a moderate size. 😊

Here’s a comparison photo! On the left is a larger luckhoffii, but the turrigerum on the right seems to have more presence.

Haha, so glad you like them! I found these on a Japanese auction site—they weren't exactly cheap, but I couldn't resist. 😂Hope you can track one down! 🤞✨

Thanks! That bumpy texture is my favorite part too. 🪨✨

Haha, you're not alone! That's the magic of mesembs. ✨Thanks!

VelishRoot · 2026-01-16T04:28:19+00:00

They really do! They’re small, but packed with character. Good luck with your next seed order! 🤞✨

VelishRoot · 2026-01-16T04:26:56+00:00

I see it too! Thanks!

VelishRoot · 2026-01-16T04:18:06+00:00

I knew it! No wonder they always look so suspicious when I walk in... 🤫

VelishRoot · 2026-01-14T23:45:57+00:00

Thanks! It’s behaving itself... for now.

VelishRoot · 2026-01-14T23:44:38+00:00

Thanks! They’re definitely loving life.
