Lithops Living Stone Cluster - Rare Collector's Trio
cancel Sold out
Lithops, native to the arid regions of southern Africa, are astonishing succulents that mimic pebbles to avoid being eaten in the wild. This extraordinary offering includes three large specimens, each with no fewer than eight mature heads, sourced from the boss’ private collection.
Distinctive Features
- Stone-like Camouflage: Each plant has a remarkable pebble-like appearance, making it almost indistinguishable from surrounding rocks in its natural habitat.
- Multiple Mature Heads: These rare pots contain no less than eight well-established heads, displaying a rich tapestry of patterns and tones.
- Seasonal Blooms: In late summer or autumn, Lithops produce daisy-like flowers that emerge dramatically from the centre slit.
Care Tips
- Light: Bright, indirect sunlight is ideal—avoid intense midday rays, especially behind glass.
- Water: Extremely low water needs. Water sparingly during active growth, and withhold entirely in dormancy.
- Humidity: Thrives in dry environments; avoid excess humidity to prevent rot.
- Media: Use a gritty, mineral-rich cactus mix with excellent drainage.
- Temperature: Prefers 18–25°C during growth, tolerates cooler periods when dry.
- Fertiliser: Feed lightly with diluted cactus fertiliser once during the growing season.
- Repotting: Rarely needed; only repot when overcrowded, and do so in early spring.
