About Lithops Lesliei

Lithops lesliei, commonly known as stone plant or pebble plant, belongs to the family Aizoaceae and genus Lithops. Originating from South Africa, the plant has a unique appearance of small, split rocks. Their fleshy leaves come in a wide range of colors, including shades of pink, green, brown, grey, and orange, featuring dark-green translucent markings.

Yellow daisy-like flowers bloom throughout autumn, making this succulent highly attractive that goes dormant in summer. While they don't have a significant smell, their visual appeal is undeniably captivating. There are other succulent varieties similar in appearance to Lithops Lesliei, but each has its unique charm.

How to care for Lithops Lesliei

Sunlight/Location: Lithops lesliei is a sun-loving succulent and prefers bright, direct sunlight in winter and autumn during the flowering period. While slight shade in hottest summer days is necessary to avoid outdoor sunburn.

Water: Give good amount of water to Lithops lesliei during its growing season and stop it after the plant is done with flowering. Continue when old leaves are replaced.

Soil/Top dressings: Lithops lesliei prefers well-draining soil, and you can add a top dressing of gravel, sand, rocks, or crushed charcoal.

Planter: Select a small to medium-sized planter with a drainage hole.

Propagation: Lithops lesliei propagate through seeds. Simply sow the seeds in the sand, water for a couple of days, and you will see plantlets emerging from it.

Fertilizer: The plant is not very demanding for the feed, but you can use a fertilizer with high potassium and low nitrogen levels.

Disease: Lithops lesliei is quite disease resistant still; pests like red spiders, mealy bugs, Sciara flies, or aphids can attack, so keep chemical-free pesticides or neem oil as a handy solution.

In general, it takes 3 to 10 days for plants to arrive after you place your order. All orders will be shipped out 48 hours after you place them. We ship the orders on work days(from Monday to Saturday) and all year round. In normal conditions, it will take 3-10 days for you to receive the package.

Winter shipping

We insist on shipping succulents to our customers all year round. However due to the extreme winter weather, although we pack succulents with as much protective material as possible, plants are still at increased risk of frost on their way to colder areas. We highly recommend adding one 72-hour heat pack to your order or you can request a hold on the package until it warms up.

Please note that The Next Gardener is not responsible for packages that suffer cold damage without a heat pack. We cannot control the weather. Order at your own risk.

Fortunately, shipping is available to Alaska, Guam, and other U.S. Territories. However, due to numerous factors beyond our control, including customs checks and shipping delays, free shipping to Hawaii and Puerto Rico is not an option. And we can not provide the 14-day quality guarantee for orders going to Hawaii and Puerto Rico. The buyer will assume all risk of damage when a delivery is delayed. We appreciate your understanding.
