more dorotheae

Here comes the rest of them. The "dotty" C300 has lost it's mate but I'm going to look out for a suitable partner.

  1. Poor thing. I hope it finds a new partner soon - but with such dashing good looks it shouldn't struggle for long :-)

    1. I've just been to the nursery I got the plant on pic 3 from and among all the C300 there was another one with this pattern. Snatched it right away :) Now to see how their kids will look like would be really interesting!

  2. These are very beautiful Lithops! One thing I love about Lithops, besides their peculiarity, is their wonderful colours and patterns, and these dorotheae sure do display beautiful faces; they look like lightning or electricity. Today, I received my very first Lithops in the mail (sent in its pot!) :-). This is the first time I've seen a Lithops in real life. When I opened the box, I was amazed and over the moon! The Lithops was unidentified, but we've named him "Walter". Rika, I was wondering if you would be able to visit my site and see if you can help identify Walter?

    1. Thank you :)
      The plants are really something different and it's always exciting to get a new one or to see the first patterns on the seedlings.

    2. Надо же, какая красота что у вас можно вот так просто пойти и купить любимцев выбирая растения в живую! Мне из моего небольшого города доступны только заказы через интернет, в которых часто покупаешь вслепую, или же названия сплошь перепутаны.
      P.S. Ждем фото новоприобретенной ростюшки!

    3. Я опять на несколько дней в Эрфурте, и каждый раз заглядываю в Кактеен Хааге. В других городах и здесь такого нет. :)

    1. Dorotheae are the Lithops species that grow very well here, year after year. Good luck with yours! :)
