General information Lithops succulents

Lithops species bloom in the fall with white or yellow flowers that emerge from the stones. Once a year the stones change their leaves. The outer part comes loose and a new plant grows from the middle. The new living stones eventually become larger than the previous one. So don't be alarmed if the stone suddenly splits open and a new stone emerges. They grow there in sandy soil and are often difficult to find. This is because the Lithops species often largely retreat into the sand during dry periods, leaving only the top of the two leaves visible.
