Lithops karasmontana Purper
I have a few seedlings from various sowings, the results are very variable but all pretty. This is the first to flower

Nice contrast. Interesting that the body colour change doesn't affect the flower at all.

Re: Lithops karasmontana Purper
Yes it is nice and unlike optica Rubra the flowers appear early enough to actually open.
Re: Lithops karasmontana Purper
Very nice. How long did it take to go from seed to flower?

Re: Lithops karasmontana Purper
It’s about 4 years from seed if I remember correctly
