Where are the Lithops?

Post by iann »

Somewhere under there is L. bella

And a L. olivacea var nebrownii under there

Not sure what is under there, but I'm going with L. marmorata for now

Easier to spot L.helmutii

L. optica is out in the open but easy to miss amongst the rocks

Nice work and photos both of you.

I thought the post was alluding to the lack of posts about them rather than them hiding under a carpet of flowers!

It's great to see Lithops in flower .... brightens up the atmosphere created by the current poor weather.
Endeavouring to grow Aylostera, Echinocereus, Echinopsis, Gymnocalycium, Matucana, Rebutia, and Sulcorebutia. Fallen out of love with Lithops and aggravated by Aeoniums.
Currently being wooed by Haworthia, attempting hybridisation, and enticed by Mesembs.
