One-half succulent soil mixed with one-half perlite is acceptable, but the less soil you have the better. The optimal growing medium for Lithops is one heavy with perlite, coarse sand, gravel, pumice, and/or lava rocks. Approximately ⅕ of the medium should be organic matter (soil) and the rest should be mineral. Lithops. Lithops need a lot of sunlight to thrive. They need 6 hours or more of direct sunlight every day. Place the living stones in a south-facing window and they will be happy. Let 100% of the soil volume dry before watering during the spring and summer. These plants thrive in a dry environment. Below the two flowering Lithops is a white seed pod that contains over 200, very tiny seeds, ready to be harvested. In the wild, some are for the birds, some for the wind, some for the insects, some for the collector, and some will stay where they land to germinate and grow.
