Introducing Lithops and Mesembs succulents — the ultimate combination of natural beauty and low-maintenance charm. These unique plants, also known as “mimicry plants” and "living stones," are named for their uncanny resemblance to the rocks and pebbles in their native habitats. These succulents are vibrant and full of life, adding a touch of natural elegance to any space. Not only are they easy to care for, but they also thrive on neglect, making them perfect for busy individuals or those with a less-than-green thumb. Plus, their unusual appearance and low water requirements make them an excellent choice for those looking to incorporate the beauty of nature into their home decor. Smart Planet offers a remarkable selection of drought-tolerant plants that are not only easier to care for, they’re mindful of our planet too. We believe there’s something special about working outside in the soil with plants or that one-of-a-kind feeling you get when tending to your indoor greenery. We grow more than just plants, we create gardening experiences for indoor and outdoor gardeners and do-it-yourselfers.

Few plants can spark conversation like lithops (aka living stones or stone faces). In their natural habitat, these intriguing succulent life-forms blend in with the surrounding non-living stones and sand. Some might say they even resemble brains or bottoms - yeah, those bottoms. The tops of their windowed leaves feature intricate patterns. In their native home of South Africa, Lithops gradually spread to form large colonies that can span 6 ft. Dia. In your planted spaces, however, potted lithops are particularly great at lending quirky flair to bright and tight spaces. You will have 4 new lithops with which to adorn a windowsill, desk, or other nook or cranny. A single body can be up to 1.5 in. Dia and is split by a central cleft, creating a nearly stemless bilobed body (cue the comparisons to bottoms). When in the bloom, lithops temporarily lose their "masters of disguise" powers, as the plants are nearly obscured by flowers that are composed of frilly satiny yellow or white petals. Provide bright light, such as a sunny window or part Sun outside. Water thoroughly when the soil is dry to the touch during spring, late Summer, and fall. Water new leaves only when old leaves are dry husks. Flowers late Summer to fall.
