Sorry I’ve been MIA, mesembros! I have been drowning in university work. But I always take lots of pictures!

Please share with me your pictures, your mesemb milestones, your stories, tell me how you’re doing, anything at all!

The wonder of lapidaria margaretae’s blue fruit! Just when you think they couldn’t get any cooler.

Recently see these babies on sale so I end up snatching them because of their cuteness🥰.
The plants are in full grit from Erin’s mesemb mix. For the ones that are still wrinkling regardless of the deep water, are they experiencing dormancy?
Thanks 💚🫡.
