A Lithops called 'Embers'

Post by iann »

There is a red cultivar of L. bromfieldii properly called 'Embers', although also with other names. These should all be 'Embers', but only one of them is. Even that one isn't the greatest example you'll ever see, it tends to brown out during the summer. It always sheds its leaves first in spring and is always taller, despite all three getting the same treatment year round.

Your "real deal" looks very nice, mine is a little weak on colouring.
