Awww, it's spotty! Not just spots, but veruccas no less. A lesson there, to keep our Lithops out of the local swimming pool.
I think it's lovely.

Tending more towards cacti, particularly Gymnocalyciums, Rebutias, Sulcorebutias, Echinopses, Thelos, Feros and Mamms (and anything else I like the look of!) all in an 8 x 6 polycarb greenhouse and a few windowsills!

Looking at your pic, I can't help being reminded of 'the Beano' and Spotty from the Bash Street Kids!
I have had my 'Rose of Texas' since september2001. Now a double header, but not yet flowered, so I still don't know if I was ripped off yet, cos it looks just like any other verruculosa - just a more expensive one!:S

Especially interested in Mesembs. small Aloes and South African miniatures and bulbs.
