I’ve recently rediscovered this great plant. You may know them as Cape Primrose but I know them as Streptocarpus hybrids - the results of plant breeders crossing various species to develop a better plant. About 5 years ago I discovered this plant for the first time and loved it at first sight. The story of its demise is explained later on but when I came across it again more recently I simply had to buy one straightaway.
Lithops are small succulents which grow in the harsh dry regions of South Africa. They are commonly known as Living Stones and its pretty obvious why when you see how easily they can blend in with sand and pebbles. My love for them first started when I was around 12 -13 years old. Anything weird caught my attention and lithops were right up there. Actually now that I think about it pretty much any plant I hadn’t seen before caught my attention and was quickly added to my wish list.
