How to Care Acrodon, Growing Acrodon, Caring for Acrodon
The acrodon genus consists of succulents requiring moderate care, adapted to arid environments. They need bright, indirect light and well-draining soil, with infrequent watering to prevent root rot. Average room temperatures are suitable, but they require protection from frost. Common challenges include pest infestations, such as mealybugs, and overwatering leading to diseases. Seasonally, acrodon demands more water in growing periods like spring and summer, while in autumn and winter, water should be reduced to mimic natural dormancy.

How to Propagate Acrodon?
Propagation of acrodon typically involves seed sowing or cuttings. Key factors for success include full sun exposure, well-draining soil, and maintaining temperatures around 20-25°C. Careful handling is essential since acrodon can be prone to root disturbance. Acrodon is considered moderately difficult to propagate due to slow growth and possible root rot. Steps include 1) sourcing healthy seeds or cuttings, 2) planting seeds in a well-draining medium or inserting cuttings into a rooting hormone, 3) providing consistent light and warmth, and 4) waiting patiently for germination or root development before transplanting.
How to Plant Acrodon?
For the genus acrodon, well-draining soil is essential to prevent root rot. These plants prefer bright, indirect sunlight and require minimal watering, embracing a 'less is more' approach. To plant, select an area with suitable light exposure and amend the soil with gritty material for drainage. Space the plants to allow for growth and air circulation. Water sparingly after planting, allowing the soil to dry out between watering sessions. It's crucial to research the nuances of individual acrodon species for optimal growth.

Living stones
Living stones (the genus name, Lithops, translates to "stone face") are easily recognizable for their bulbous, nearly fused leaf structure. Their uniquely rocklike appearance is likely a survival adaptation: herbivores are likely to confuse them for pebbles, so they won't attempt to consume them.
Cleretum
Cleretum is a genus of flowering plants in the family Aizoaceae, native to the Cape Provinces of South Africa.
Rhombophyllum
Rhombophyllum are a genus of succulents and subshrubs native to tropical southern Africa. These plants are ideal for use in garden borders and container gardening, as they attract butterflies, bees, and other pollinators. They have also been used to stabilize banks and ground cover.
