Description:

Miniature succulent characterized by a single couple of leaves, extremely fleshy and fused together, disposed as an inverted cone. The top surface result totally flattened: the name of the species identifies this Lithops as “false truncatum”, referring to its resemblance to Conophytum truncatum due to its surface cutted almost to ground level. The upper epidermis of L. pseudotruncatella, of a pleasant tenuous color that may vary from greenish to brown till even gray, is lovably dappled by darker asymmetrical veins, which give the plant three-dimensionality and uniqueness. In Autumn this gracious jewel will delight your rooms with big yellow flowers which bloom from the slit between the two leaves.

Plant care:

It likes very bright places, however, avoid direct sunlight during the hottest hours of the day. It prefers environments with low humidity.

It is preferable to keep it at mild temperatures and never below 10 °C, for this reason it is recommended to shelter it during the winter period.

Water moderately in spring and summer but only when the soil is completely dry and suspend watering completely in winter.

The best soil is a well-draining one, even better if further enriched with inert materials such as pumice, sand or lapilli.

They do not need frequent fertilization, it is sufficient to dilute the fertilizer with watering once a year.
