Growing Information and Requirements:
Lithops thrive in well-drained, dry, and breathable soil. For best results, use a cactus or succulent soil mix and ensure the soil dries out completely between waterings. As these plants are accustomed to arid environments, they need minimal water—water them by soaking from the bottom of the pot after a week of planting to encourage root development. Lithops require full sun for optimal growth, so be sure to gradually increase their exposure to sunlight once they’re settled in their new location.
Care Instructions and Maintenance:
Caring for Lithops is easy with the right conditions. Plant them in a well-draining pot and avoid overwatering, as they are highly susceptible to root rot if kept too moist. Lithops are a perfect choice for anyone looking for a unique, low-maintenance plant that doesn’t require much attention once established. Make sure they receive adequate sunlight, and be mindful of their watering schedule. In cooler months, you may need to reduce watering as the plant enters a dormant state.
