Conophytum meyeri
living stones
Description
Conophytum meyeri is a small, fascinating succulent native to the arid landscapes of South Africa. It is characterized by its paired leaves that are fused together, forming a small, rounded body that resembles a tiny, smooth stone. The leaves are typically gray-green in color. During the growing season, it produces small, daisy-like flowers that emerge from the fissure between the leaves, adding a pop of color to the otherwise subtle plant. It grows slowly, forming clusters over time. These plants thrive in well-draining, mineral-rich soil and require bright, indirect sunlight. Water sparingly, particularly during its dormant period. Conophytum meyeri is a charming addition to any succulent collection, appreciated for its unique form and delicate blooms. This tiny plant is a true jewel of the succulent world.
