I love the pseudolithos and the cute little conophytum in particular, but they are all great!

Here's another shot from a different perspective: New-Friends.jpg

That white one is so round and cute! Is it related to Lithops at all or is it an entirely different species? Also love the squiggle boi in the back!

The white one is a Dinteranthus pole-evansii - love how it looks like a golf ball :) https://www.llifle.com/Encyclopedia/CACTI/Family/Aizoaceae/11222/Dinteranthus_pole-evansii

The squiggle boi is actually an Euphorbia - Euphorbia oncoclada Drake to be exact. Really happy with the whole haul - hope they all grow big and strong!

Awesome haul!! I wish there were more succulent shows by me, so jealous!

With more succulent shows around it's really really hard to stop yourself from constantly getting more though, so there's a silver lining ;)

Thank you for easing my concern a bit about getting my last batch 😂

Love these, my favorites are the tall one in the tan pot and the one on the bottom right! Does it have a distinct smell?

It's an addiction, isn't it? ;)

The yellow flowers on the Ceropegia don't really have a smell as far as I can tell - maybe it's more distinct right after blooming? I'll check next time it gets new flowers.

I’ve told a few people it’s like collecting real life Pokémon 😂 The whole process is really fun & rewarding for me.

So true - gotta catch'em all! [looks at the number of succulent species in the world] Well crap... ;)
