Argyroderma pearsonii is a charming dwarf succulent — a “living stone” — native to the quartz-strewn landscapes of South Africa. It features two thick, silvery-green leaves fused at the base, resembling a small stone or pebble. Each fall, A. pearsonii has a solitary daisy-like bloom emerging from the central fissure between the leaves.
It is a perfect choice for plant lovers who enjoy low-maintenance succulents that still offer unique textures and natural character.
Care & Growing Tips
-
Prefers bright light but avoids intense direct sun, especially in hot afternoons.bring indoors if temperature drops too low.
-
Use a fast-draining, porous soil mix (succulent/cactus mix or gritty, inorganic substrate) to prevent root rot.
-
Follow a “soak-and-dry” watering method: water deeply but rarely; allow the soil to dry completely before watering again. Avoid over-watering — especially during dormancy.
