Conophytum Meyeri, affectionately known as "living pebbles," is a captivating succulent that brings the charm of South Africa's arid landscapes to your home. This miniature marvel is prized for its compact growth habit, forming dense clusters of fleshy, button-like leaves that seamlessly blend into their surroundings. As a perfect example of evolutionary adaptation, Conophytum Meyeri's unique appearance serves as both a water conservation strategy and a natural camouflage against herbivores in its native habitat.
 
In mature specimens, Conophytum Meyeri truly comes into its own, displaying a mesmerising array of numerous heads. These tightly packed clusters create a living mosaic, each individual plant body resembling a small, split pebble. The leaves are typically grayish-green to brownish in color, often featuring intricate patterns or speckles that add to their allure. This mature growth not only enhances the plant's visual appeal but also demonstrates its resilience and ability to thrive under proper care.
 
The true magic of Conophytum Meyeri unfolds during its blooming season, typically in autumn or early winter. When in flower, this unassuming succulent transforms into a dazzling spectacle, producing bright yellow blossoms that emerge from the center of each leaf pair. These cheerful, daisy-like flowers open in the afternoon and close at night, creating a daily display of golden beauty that contrasts beautifully with the plant's subdued foliage. The combination of its compact form and vibrant blooms makes Conophytum Meyeri an irresistible addition to any succulent collection.
 
PLEASE NOTE: During dormancy the leaves dry up and develop a papery sheath which protects the next seasons leaves.  Conophytum go dormant during summer, reducing their metabolic activity to conserve their resources until conditions become more favorable (cooler) for growth and development.  
 
Plants will be sent bare rooted: Please ensure that you have your substrate and pot ready for your new plant! Sending plants bare rooted is the safest way to protect them, from damage in transit and rot.
