They haven't made it to the east coast yet. I hope they eventually arrive.

Ooo really? CVS? Wow! Lucky you! I just love lithops! One of my favs! I just have bad luck with them! But I do have one that has survived almost a year! He's my lone survivor! Lol🤣

Haha, I've killed three since December! Hopefully I've gotten the hang of them now. 😕

These need very little water. Make sure you do not water until the soil is dry. That means that temperatures and humidity will change your watering pattern throughout the year.

They need very little water through most of the year. If you over water them they will burst and rot. So water very sparingly when do. I wait till mine start to shrivel a little from lack of water...then for sure I know they need a little bit. Ive killed several by overwatering. But I have one that's been going strong for about a year now!.
