Description
Lithops julii has a leaf structure composed of pairs of leaves, out of the center of which flowers and new leaves grow. Leaves are usually a pale grey, with a grid of linear depressions. The colors of the depression vary from plant to plant, but can be tinges of red, brown, green, blue, pink, or beige. Flowers sprout from between the two leaves, and are white in color.
