A plant that looks like a stone – honest

Only the eagle-eyed visitor will spot this tiny gem of a plant gingerly poking its flowers out of its terracotta pot. This genus of succulent plants, native to South Africa, is commonly called pebble plant or living stone – and you can see why as they look exactly like little pebbles bursting into flower. They are really fascinating little specimens and are flowering right now in the Mediterranean Biomes – just enter the Biome and look to the right.
