Visitng the Moutons Lithops in Namibia

Post by pvdw »

I had the opportunity to visit the Moutons in August. I only had an hour or two so could not look at all the pots in detail. I took some picks to take home. I want to share a few with you.

I hope to return in 2019 bur this time I will stay over at least 2 nights to take time in the plant house.

HI,

I think you need to correct the subject, it should be Mouton not Moulton (Hilde & Frikkie).

I've removed the 'l' from the title line to aid correct searching.

Also, it is well worth looking at the website of Hilde and Frikkie Mouton at:

I've always wondered why they call it a "Lithoparium" and not a "Lithopsarium"......?
