I thought I was good on Lithops until my Holiday angst kicked in. This happened technically, per the song, on the second day of Christmas. Yes, I give myself presents to deal with mass, sad, tradition-bound Consumerism. That’s just my experience, all. No shade to anyone else’s joy. This season would be different if I were decorating a Saguaro and running around in shorts.

I got these two from Mountain Crest Gardens ($11 total). This was also a gamble to get another Lithops species into the mix. I did it!

I think this was my fourth order. They pack and pad everything really well in preparation for being turned upside down over and over.

Thank you. Ps I see you identified and repotted that tiny thing you found in the Lithops pot. Now I want one ha.
