Rebutia Narvaceansis - I think not?!
I got these seeds from the BCSS seed list and planted them in April this year. They came up quickly and are growing nicely...but not convinced they are as described! Perhaps more of a succulent not cactus?

They look like some sort of mesemb, not sure which! Did you order any mesembs?

I'd go with Delosperma, although I'd have expected them to grow even bigger than that in six months. Perhaps you were treating them like Rebutias

No I didn't order any mesembs as Im new to the hobby am not sure on how to care for them. Anyway will be interesting to see what these Rebutia imposters grow to be like!

You clearly have a strong affinity for Mesembs! They look to be growing really well!
