History
Lithops is a succulent that is also called living stone plant and is easy to grow indoors. The plant’s common name—living stone—comes from the fact that the succulent looks like a small rock, pebble, or stone. The unusual feature of lithops plants is their two fleshy succulent leaves in a kidney bean shape. The fissure between the two plump lithops leaves splits, and then a flower or a pair of new leaves emerge.
Grow Instructions
Plant your Lithops in well-draining succulent soil and place it in bright, indirect light. Water sparingly and allow the soil to dry between waterings.
Care Instructions
- Maintain a warm and consistent indoor temperature for optimal growth.
- Prune to maintain the rosette shape and remove any damaged leaves or leggy growth.
- Fertilize lightly with a succulent-specific fertilizer every 2-3 months during the growing season.
- Repot when necessary to refresh the soil and provide space for growth.
