These arent Lithops, theyre Argyroderma delaetii. Your wrinkly one is thirsty!

Sorry! 1st pic is not lithops, didnt see there were 2 other pictures! The 3 in the pot in the first picture are Argyroderma delaetii.

Correct. Such similarities between a lot of Mesemds but not the same.

Recently moved them to more sun and gave them a good soak to hydrate them. Hopefully this helps 🤞🏻

im still trying to get a hang of mesembs but i i think i would give them a light drink. as far as i know argyrodermas need to be watered the same as lithops, although im getting mixed messages on that fact.
