Seeds for Africa
|
The genus Dinteranthus occurs in the north-western parts of the Northern Cape Province, South Africa and the south-eastern parts of Namibia. The small sphaeroid bodies of these plants resemble other rock-like mesembs such as Lithops. The leaf pairs are separated by a deep cleft from which the flower arises. Unlike other sphaeroids, however, the leaves often have a distinct keel along the lower leaf surface. The plants are popular among collectors. They need excellent drainage and a good deal of light. They should be treated like Lithops, though they require less water. They are propagated by seed. Stemless, solitary/clumps, boat-shaped green/pinkish grey leaves with keels & dots, golden yellow flowers in late summer. Sow seed uncovered and exposed to light, plants need summer resting period. Sow autumn. USDA Zone - 9 Season to Sow - Autumn |
