♥ 10 Seeds Rare Exotic Conophytum Calculus ♥
These authentic seeds usually take 2-3 weeks to germinate under proper conditions (Moisture, Light, Temperature, Air Circulation & etc) Don’t expect all the seed to germinate at the same time, some seeds might take longer than others. Planting instructions are included with each packet.
Conophytum calculus occurs far to the northeast areal of the species, in the Bushmanland, North-West Cape Province, South Africa. This plant has become so closely fused together as to look like a pale-green globe. They are often called pebble or button plants as a result. It is obvious that the greater the reduction of the surface area, the greater the drought to which the plant is subjected in its native habitat. Nearly perfectly spherical to somewhat laterally flattened, about 16-20 mm high and rather more across (up to 24 mm), with only a tiny a cleft about 4 mm across, chalky greyish green, pale blue-green or purple blue in colour, without dark dots or stripes (rarely with very scanty spots) and sometimes ribbed. During the summer season, plants aestivate and the body is gradually replaced by a new young pair of leaves.
Caution: (Seeds are TINY)
Please be very careful when opening the seed pack, seeds are extremely small and can be easily blown away.
