Look fuzzy and cute.
The two in the middle in the top, they are still to peel of their first layer?

From where did you obtain the Muiria seeds? Was thinking of giving them a go myself.

The Mesemb Study Group offered some seed on the 2009 list. The germination was pretty decent, 8 seedlings out of 11 seeds.

Lovely fuzzy balls, well done!. :smile:
From I have heard, they are quite easy to germinate, but rather tricky keeping them long term.

That's odd. I have seedlings sown in 2010, which have been covered in a sheet since last November. The two seedlings have just popped out of it and have grown a bit. They should need to go into a rest untill end of July / August, I think.
