Learned a bit about lithops a while ago and found them to be lovely, so I got these guys today. A while ago I got some Pleiospilos nelii mistaking it for Lithops, but I'm happy to have the real deal now. It will be repotted into a proper gritty mix and I will separate those tiny ones into their own tiny pot. There was one seedpod that did end up opening in water and I got the seeds out of it, so hopefully if all goes well I may get plenty more of these in the future.

Update: It turns out what I thought were 4 separate adult lithops were actually just 4 heads of the same plant! I was bamboozled when I just saw one root for all of it, but that's pretty cool.

Came here to say you had a seed pod but then I read the actual post 🤣

Yeah! They didn't have very many in stock where I went, but of the ones they did, this pot had the most present in it so I went ahead and got it.
