Optica rubra

Post by mjg75 »

Hi

I seem to have lost my Lithop Optica rubra(very shrivelled up) over the last couple of months it doesn't look as though it will recover there's not much left. Can anyone help with where to get seeds or plants.

Many thanks.

Nobody? There are always some on eBay, although prices seemed silly when I looked today. And what on earth is this? Not all that is red is Rubra apparently.

Succulenta usually has Lithops optica "rubra" on its list every year. Don't know if you are in time to order some from the December seed list you can find at: https://succulenta.nl/zaadlijst/

Well worth a try anyway. Member go first, but non-members might still be in luck.
