Distinctive Features
- Stone-Like Appearance: Lithops have evolved to resemble small stones or pebbles, a remarkable adaptation that helps them camouflage in their natural habitat.

- Daisy-Like Flowers: Lithops produce stunning daisy-like flowers that emerge from the fissure between their leaves. These vibrant blooms add a delightful touch of colour to your collection.
Care Tips
- Light: Lithops thrive in bright, indirect light. Avoid direct sunlight, which can scorch their delicate leaves.
- Water: Water sparingly, allowing the soil to dry out completely between waterings. Lithops are adapted to arid conditions and are susceptible to overwatering.
- Humidity: Lithops prefer low humidity levels. Avoid misting or placing them in humid environments.
- Temperature: Lithops thrive in warm temperatures between 20-25°C (68-77°F) during the day and cooler temperatures at night.
- Fertiliser: Fertilize Lithops once a year in spring with a diluted succulent fertilizer.
- Potting: Use a well-draining potting mix formulated for succulents or cacti. Ensure the container has drainage holes to prevent waterlogging.
- Propagation: Lithops can be propagated from seed. Sowing seeds in spring provides the best results.
