I've only got one Lithop and to be honest I never really intended having that one. I wanted to order a succulent from a vendor who had a minimum order value, so I added a cheap Lithop to take the order up to the value. But I've kinda taken a liking to it and wouldn't mind having a few more. It did pretty much nothing for the first couple of years. I think it might have been due to it being too dry though, as I use an extremely free draining media. I read that they should be kept dry while the new leaves are replacing the old, but mine got stuck at this stage; however, within days of me giving in and watering it, the new leaves emerged. I now water regularly and it has rewarded me with a flower and another one on the way.
Lithops do certainly grow on ya.. I wasnt a huge fan but decided it'd be neat to set up a little rock garden with them.. here's my lithops bowl shortly after putting it all together.. Theyre much bigger now.. Been around a year..

I bought a couple last fall in bud. They haven't done a thing since they finished blooming. I keep waiting for the new leaves to pop out be so far nothing.
how much and how often do you water them? I had one years ago and they die not sure if I water them to much or not but would like to try again to grow them? do they like lot of sunshine?
