Description:
L. fulviceps
is generally smaller than most Lithops but its shape follows the
same pattern of a
cordate (heart-shaped),
bifurcate body of two
leaves, cleft nearly to the
base and showing a pattern of channels, islands and
windows on the top face.
The patterns of colours and dots of this cultivar on the face is
regular. The numerous dots (small windows) are bright green on a golden
top, the plants body is a beautiful lime green colour.
Cultivation:
After flowering in the
autumn and extending through
winter the plant doesn’t need
watering, but they extracts
water from the outer
succulent leaves, allowing them to
shrivel away, relocating water to the rest of the plant and to the
new leaves that form during this period. This plant is best for a well
lit area (Bright
shade to
full sun). Water sparingly only when warm, no water when cold. |
