Lithops sp. *huge plant* Cactus Astrophytum asterias x capricorne A

Astrophytum asterias x capricorne  A very interesting hybrid between two attractive Astrophytum species

Put in a well draining mix and avoid overwatering

It takes up water from the roots

so I've giving it this provisional name

Please note: The color on these plants is highly variable depending on conditions

Lithops sp. *huge plant* Cactus Astrophytum asterias x capricorne ALithops sp. A nice pinkish, purplish, greenish species. Unlike most plants Lithops have two growing seasons and two dormant seasons per year. Overwatering is the biggest risk in growing these plants. Give water as the soil is about to dry out in the spring through early summer, and in the fall. Keep dryer in the winter and in very hot summer weather. Hot weather makes them and most mesembs go dormant, and wet roots during dormancy can lead to rot.
