Re: First time for flowers- Conophytum

Congratulations on your first flowering! However it doesn’t look like C. comptonii (quite a rare species) which would normally have straw yellow flowers. Hopefully someone else might be able to identify it.

Yes, Ernie, I purchased some Aeoniums and an Echeveria from them a couple of months ago. Excellent plants, well packed, and can highly recommend.

Re: Is this rot on my Lophophora? Solved

No, I don’t think so, probably corking due to age. Lophs often have discolouration at the soil line.
