Hola Catehrine!!!!

Last year it would had been a problem for me, because I was anxious to get lithops seeds (it was the first year that I sowed lithops). But this year I have a lot of lithops seeds ready to be sowed, and I have no hurry.

Best regards.

You could have tried Mesa Garden too.
It offers many more in case you were looking for something specific. Mesa Garden offers Lithops verruculosa 'Rose of Texas', the pink flowering Lithops. Haven't seen it anywhere else.

No Cactus World here in Sweden yet! I´m not new here.. My account got closed and I could not get back in so had to use initials instead of my name (Thord). Wishing all a HAPPY NEW YEAR

And indeed.

The first picture I can find online of Conophytum youngii is this one:

Bit hard to see the raspberry shaped bodies. From a different photo I saw of Conophytum youngii the bodies looked very much like raspberries. I assume I was not mistaken.

Not really Allan - it's almost identical to one in the December BCSS journal anyway, so all members receiving that will have seen a similar picture and more.
