Highlights
Cheiridopsis speciosa (Brown): A taller relative of the famed Lithops plant with blue-green speckled leaves that split as it ages. From these splits, a newer pair of leaves arise until, eventually, the oldest leaves are sloughed off. They tend to bloom through the winter with showy, fragrant flowers that can be yellow, red, orange, or lilac. The flowers open during the day and close at night. This plant is fully rooted in a 3.25" pot.
Soft succulents will not survive a hard frost, but if there is a risk of freezing temperatures they can be brought indoors to grow on a sunny window sill or under a grow light. They need bright sunlight, good drainage, and infrequent water to prevent rot. Pick containers with drainage holes and use well-draining cactus and succulent soil with 50% to 70% mineral grit such as coarse sand, pumice, or perlite. Water deeply enough for water to run out the drainage hole, then wait for the soil to fully dry before watering again.
