Query for Hywel

Have acquired these three, wondering if you could name them for me please.

Top left - Lithops, but I don't know the species. There are lots of them. Maybe when it flowers it will be easier to identify it.

Top right looks like Graptopetalum paraguayense but with such a small specimen it's difficult to tell exactly.

Bottom - Haworthia retusa

Thank you so much Hywel. Can I expect flowers from them all do you think, and how long do you think, is it going to be years ?

They should flower easily. The Graptopetalum looks as if it could do with a bit more light, it should grow into a nice tight rosette, and then it will flower.

Don't know about the Lithops. I've never grown them.

Haworthia should flower in the spring when it's big enough. They grow quite quickly and flower easily.

Good luck. I hope you show photos of them when they flower :)

Thanks very much, sounds promising. I certainly will put pictures on when they flower.
