The Living Stones



Many attempts on growing them in Singapore has left me disappointed.


This time round was different,


a different place, a different climate and a different fate for the plants.




They are known as lithops or as the "living stones".


I call them the "Pi Ku Cao" (Backside plant)




Serena described them as boring plants as they don't grow much.


The plant spilts in the middle (just like your butt_LOL) and out comes another fresh new plant.


Depending on the level of moisture and nutrients the plant receives, the new "butt" gets smaller or bigger.
