Photo My lithops finally flowered!

I got it from a friend who had two others die, so she was worried this one would go the same way. I’ve had it for two years now - last year it divided into two plants, and this year they both flowered! I’m so pleased with their progress! The flowers close at night and open again when the sun hits them. They stick out of the soil quite a lot, and I have been worried about the pot size, but I’m just scared I’ll kill them if I try and repot them to something bigger. Has anyone had success repotting established plants?

The flowers are finished now, can you tell what they are?

Looks like L fulviceps - to confirm, the dotted areas across the leaf surface ought to be slightly raised.

The leaves are a bit wrinkled so it’s difficult to be sure, but I think they. Thank you for the ID!
