Lithops, commonly known as “living stones,” are a unique genus of succulent plants native to southern Africa. They are renowned for their remarkable camouflage, mimicking the appearance of pebbles or stones to evade herbivores. Lithops have a pair of thick, fleshy leaves that split open to reveal a small, daisy-like flower, usually in autumn. These plants thrive in well-draining soil and require minimal water, making them popular among succulent enthusiasts. Their fascinating adaptation and low-maintenance nature contribute to their appeal in cultivation and botanical studies.
