That's it. I think the little one is the same as the big one. I think its very likely they're both Dinterops 'Stones Throw' since that was sown at the same time.

So all I get is extra kudos. Best offer I've been given in some time. I'll take it! :grin:

Have you grown it? Mine are all over the place. Some started flowering at less than 3 years old, others are still tiny. Appearance is also quite variable, as you might expect from a hybrid.

No, I haven't grown that one. In fact I have lost a number of my Lithops. Our temperature has been extremely hot. The greenhouse temperature has been in the 50s, hitting as high as 58°C and it's suppose to continue for some time. I can't seem to figure out whether to water or not and how often.
