Lithops sp. Mix – Trios

Living stones (Lithops sp.) are one of those plants that captures the imagination inspiring gardeners and non-gardeners alike. These succulents from southern Africa look like a flat rock with a little slit down the middle. In summer or fall they can produce a multi-petaled, white or yellow flower. The top surface has translucent epidermal windows that allows light to penetrate into the photosynthetic tissue within each leaf. Here we offer trios – three small lithops about 1cm wide each planted to maximize the colour contrasts in each pot.
