Description
Titanopsis calcarea is a mat forming succulent with basal rosettes up to 3 inches in diameter. Fleshy leaves, up to 1 inch long with truncate tip, usually grey or blue-green, densely covered at the apex with whitish, creamy grey, ochre, red or bluish rough tubercles. Yellow to orange flowers, 2 cm in diameter..
Environment
Concrete Leaf Living Stone should be kept in a bright, sunny situation at all times. It will grow well in a south-facing window.
Water this succulent well during the spring, allowing the compost to dry between waterings. During the summer, the semi-dormant Concrete Leaf Living Stone should be watered sparingly to avoid any chance of it rotting.
Like many of the South African desert plants, Concrete Leaf Living Stone tends to become dormant, or semi-dormant, during the height of summer in order to conserve moisture. It is often a mistake during mid summer to keep the plants wet, although they do require some water during this period.
