Rare Succulent Lithops Collector Item

This listing features a must-have item for serious lithops/succulent collectors: Live Rare ♥Lithops Dinteranthus Vanzylii♥. Lithops are succulents belonging to the Mesembryanthemaceae family, originating from South Africa. They store water in their fleshy leaves, but are not related to cacti. The top of the leaves are window-like, allowing light to enter the plant's body. Flower colors range from white to yellow, with this particular species having bright red windows on top.

Specifications: - Qty: 1 Live Lithops Plant (Dinteranthus Vanzylii) - Plant Size: 2 Years Old, Diameter: 0.5-0.6 Inch, Height: 1-1.5 Inches (From crown to the root) - Color: Grayish White to Light Pink - The plant will ship Bare Root (Unpotted)

Watering: - Keep the plants barely moist. Overwatering is the most common problem with Living Stones. - During the cold winter months, watering should be light and infrequent, until the days grow longer and the temperature warms up. - Generally, Lithops will do best being watered about once every 2-3 weeks (when not in active growth or flowering). - Tap water or distilled water is fine.

Light: - Lithops require full to very bright sun (either direct or indirect). - It can take full strength sun, but be mindful of sun burning the leaves. - After repotting, allow 5-7 days for the plant to acclimate to changes in light quality. - A window facing West, South, or East should do nicely.

Soil: - Use a quick-draining soil mix (a packaged soil mix for cactus and succulents should have sand added at the rate of about 60% soil mix to 40% sand by volume). - Another good mix would be 40% peat moss and 60% perlite to allow even faster drainage.

This is a rare live exotic Dinteranthus Vanzylii, a 2-year-old plant with a diameter of 0.5-0.6 inch and a height of 1-1.5 inches (from crown to root). The color ranges from pinkish white to grayish white. All plants are different, so their color may vary. To maintain the vibrant color, ensure adequate sunlight.

This is a must-have plant for succulent and lithops collectors. The plant size is approximately the size of a dime or penny, and it will be shipped bare root (without soil), individually wrapped.

Growing Lithops requires more attention and is harder than other succulents and cacti. Depending on the growing season, Lithops may naturally split, crack, or develop scars on their sides and top. This is a natural process and does not mean the plant is dying. The scarring will be shed when the Lithops split.
