@LatiTish84 some of them have white flowers! I’ve been just super happy I haven’t killed them—I didn’t expect to get a flower! But thanks for the laugh! Always appreciated! 💚
YEEESSSSSSSSSSS. That’s always awesome when they flower. And the flowers start to get huge. Bigger than the lithops it seems. And that’s even more awesome that the one in the back is now becoming two on one root system. It’s so cool when they grow in big clusters with multiple heads. I’ve seen some that where over 30 years old in videos and they look crazy.
@SirLiquorice thank you! I really admire those huge old clusters! I would love to keep these guys going for the rest of my life! I love them so much. My mom teases me that they’re my pets. Lol. I try really hard to keep them healthy. They’re all enjoying the cooler temps we’re having here in Kentucky at the moment.
@Jana85 congrats on the flower🥳🤩 I’m trying to figure out what I’m doing wrong… I watered my lithops and they appeared to be splitting then they go back to the way they were… is this normal?
@SirLiquorice I watched that video, WOW I'm seriously going to research Lithops and am probably going to try my hand at growing Lithops 🤔
@SirLiquorice holy cow! That entire place is mind blowing! Those giant totem pole cacti! 😱 And those were the most amazing Lithops collection I think I’ve ever seen. Some of the pots were bulging out from the size of them. I can’t even imagine. I hope I am able to keep mine alive for decades to watch them grow like this. I wish I could visit a place like this in person.
@Sassylimey I highly recommend them—they’re so funky and cool! And if you just research a little on how to grow them, it’s actually really easy. Two of my friends grow them, too. And you can have a whole collection in a small space because they’re so tiny. 💚
@FirstCanna it looks like none of them are actually splitting currently. They always have a little butt crack. Lol. When they actually split, the leaves will open up and a crack will form and new leaves will be visible. So, as they get dehydrated and then hydrated again, the crack in yours can definitely get more and less pronounced. They look super good and healthy!
@Lithopslover it’s Rainbow Gardens nursery but I don’t think they sell online. Www.planetdesert.com sells and ships lithops however.
@SirLiquorice planet desert does ship lithops and they have amazing quality, I wish they’d let pick species :(
@Lithopslover east Austin succulents will ship to you. I am just not sure how often they have lithops. But that makes me want to ask them
@Jana85 I’ve seen them but I think all their specimens are so small and i worry about smaller sized plants because I have no@idea what im doing and need a forgiving plant
