It was very hot, very crowded and yet still worth it - finally got not just one, but both known species of Aztekium without going bankrupt - I wanted one for a long while, but they tend to be stupid expensive in Japan.

Love the two cute jellybeans too - Conophytum burgeri. Hell, love all of them, that's why I bought too many yet again :)

Thank you for clearing this up. I thought the ritteri is the one with lots of wrinkles. I loved the valdezii for its beauty and the ritteri for its ugliness lol. But perhaps this characteristic is very variable within the species.
