Lithops 4352
Image by yellowcloud
Lithops are extremely succulent plants originating from the semi-deserts of southern Africa. Their plant body rests under ground, while on top they have transparent windows to let sunlight in for photosynthesis. A camouflage pattern on the windows lets them appear more or less like a pair of pebblestones, so hungry animals may hardly find them.

Be aware that sites from the southern hemisphere
have a six-month-shift in the description of the
annual lithops growing cycle.
