A very nice clump of Lithops in late winter splitting mode. You can really see the mimicry effect with the red rocks around them. Don’t water when they’re splitting like this. You want to make sure they absorb all the moisture out of the older leaves into the newer leaves, otherwise the new growth can be choked off.

thanks for the tip! is there a better/safer time to replant them (potted ones, that is)?

It’s best to transplant after they are done splitting. Any time from then until they start blooming the following winter.
