That is not even close! Though you could have spotted it, as Ferocactus and Delosperma seeds are quite different. Or the one that sent you these should know better.

I think the seed sorter may have had enough by the time they did those ones, must make you go mad after a while.
Makes you smile and added interest,thought it amusing.
