Lithops coming of age

Posted by Stuart under: Other Succulents; Propagation .

Lithops julii ssp fulleri showing first pair of adult leavesMy Lithops julii ssp fulleri seedlings have reached an important milestone: the production of their first true leaf pair. The split cotyledons are particularly evident if you look at the two plants to the left of this picture.

Given that I nearly managed to cook these little plants when I first transferred them to the greenhouse I’ve been pleased with their progress. I’m still pushing them along with regular watering - in fact, to be honest, I’m not really letting them dry out. For scale, that’s a 2" pot.
