Just updating the status of my lithops. Well, it looks sad and ghastly as usual..being summer. Actually lost half of the split, so only one leaf remaining. Since it is dormant right now, changing the soil, adding some top dressing. The remaining leaf feels firm though the top looks crunchy dry. I removed the dead leaf. And reading further, says it may need more light...okay, so moving it to the other area where the rest of my potted succulents are. When I took another photo of the plant after repotting it, I realized that lithops is doing good..I was not closely paying attention to the top portion..with the close-up, I can now see the window created by a split on the top of the leaf..so my hope is rekindled..lithops is still alive somehow!
