Lithops karasmontana, commonly known as living stones, are small, succulent perennials native to the arid regions of southern Africa. They are part of the Aizoaceae family and are well-adapted to desert or dry shrubland climates. These plants have a unique appearance, resembling small stones or pebbles, which helps them blend into their surroundings and avoid being eaten by herbivores. Lithops undergo a dormancy period during the hot summer months.
