    I have one of the living stones at the bottom right in a flower pot. Sadly it grows really weird and doesn’t look so cool anymore then…

      It’s badly etoliated (stretching to get more sun) and appears to be in a soil with too much organic matter.

      The poor dear needs heaps more sun, and soil that doesn’t retain much, if any water.

      (I have a few lithops. I’m shocked yours is still alive!)

        Haha thank you! It seems to be a very resistant plant. I guess it could be a good idea to put it into a more sandy soil. Regarding the sun - it doesn’t really strech towards the window, it just seems to have no real grip in the soil and just “lays down”.
