Lithops marmorata
Lithops marmorata isn't flowering currently, but the plants themselves are worth a picture. These are a little crowded and are in need of transplanting, but that's for later.
We're into our Fall rains now, with an inch of rain expected again tomorrow. Our hearts go out to those on the Eastern seaboard of the United States as Sandy slams ashore. Hang in there folks!

Lithops schwantesii and L. karasmontana 'lateritia'
I finally had some time to get some photos today, taking a break from all the rain (and fairly warm weather) we've been having. We've also been feeling a bit under the weather.
The yellow flowered plant is Lithops schwantesii (grown from seed from the Taras Nature Preserve), and the white flower in the foreground is Lithops karasmontana 'lateritia'.

Echeveria 'Barbillion'
I've been too busy to get any more photos today. This one - taken by Lynn-Marie a few days ago - is of a young Echeveria 'Barbillion' offset, getting it's lumps. A Dick Wright hybrid, this one really gets big!

No flowers today, but there is this photo of 'Opalina' - Lithops karasmontana (Opalina) C169 - to be precise.
Enjoy your plants!

Conophytum latum
It's not just the lithops which are flowering. This is Conophytum latum (Umdaus, north of Steinkopf) which is outright luminous. They kind of glow in the light, almost as if they had an LED light down inside them somewhere!
Lithops aucampiae (Kurumon form)
This is a seed grown Lithops aucampiae Kurumon form. The ones in the back, including the one about to flower, are lithops terracolor seedlings, a couple years old.

Lithops karasmontana ssp. karasmontana v. karasmontana (Signalberg form)
These were originally labeled the mickbergensis form, but I think that was incorrect. Another white flowered form.
