Here's a nice Lithops. Wonderful flowers with a white eye for added interest. And large enough to hide those garish patterned leaves :)

`No Ian, this is my favourite Lithops, any one were the flower dies back and it looks as if fertilization was successful :-)))

Do you tickle them, Roy? Or just let the insects have their way? I wouldn't sell the farm on that one just yet ... looks just plump enough to hope, still small enough to disappoint :)

I tickle them like babies over the course of a week as recommended by Steve Hammer but it does not always work. Maybe I should sing something romantic whilst I'm flicking the brush! :-))))
