Lithops hallii C087. It is one of the most variable white flowering species with a rugose surface. This species is fairly easy to identify and shows shades of reddish-brown with regular fine to broad interlacing network of blood-red or brown channels with few or many mostly small islands and fairly distinct irregularly dentate margins. It never has a brown line along the lip of the fissure. Shoulders as for the margins, or lighter, or milky bluish grey. Sowing : The small seeds can be sown in pots of fine, well-drained sand, any time during the summer months when temperatures are warm. Cover the seeds with a very fine layer of grit and water from below with a fungicide to prevent damping off. For the first 3-4 days cover the pots with a sheet of glass/clear Perspex to keep the humidity levels high. Remove the glass and replace it with light shade cloth and mist once or twice a day for the next two weeks after which most seeds should have germinated. From then on misting can be reduced to every second and then every third day as the little plants grow. Locality: Hopetown. Harvest: November 2021
