Lithops too big? How to keep ‘giant’ Mesembs, Lithops and Argyroderma alive

I picked up two BIG Mesembs the other day, a Lithops and an Argyroderma. The problem with these is that they’re almost too big! Due to overwatering, over-fertilizing, and a disregard for their preferred light and care needs, these massive Mesembs are at risk of not being able to handle their own leaves.

Find out why size matters and how to increase your odds of keeping these big box beasts alive while getting them on a normal care routine.
