How to Care Tentfig, Growing Tentfig, Caring for Tentfig
Tentfig is known for its succulent nature and adaptability, often thriving in environments with full to partial sunlight. Basic care involves well-draining soil, minimal watering to prevent root rot, and maintaining mild to warm temperatures. Common challenges include overwatering, pests such as aphids and mealybugs, and potential frost damage. Seasonal adjustments are minimal, but tentfig may require protection from extreme cold and reduced watering in winter.

How to Propagate Tentfig?
Primary propagation of tentfig can be done via cuttings or seed. Key factors for successful propagation include appropriate light, optimal temperature around 20°C, and well-draining soil. Special considerations consist of ensuring cuttings are taken from healthy plants and treated with rooting hormone. The difficulty level is moderate due to the need for balanced moisture and preventing rot. To propagate, take a stem cutting, let it callous over for a day or two, dip in rooting hormone, plant in cactus mix, and keep it warm and lightly moist.
How to Plant Tentfig?
Tentfig thrives in well-drained soil with full to partial sun exposure, tolerating dry conditions once established. To plant, prepare a site by loosening soil and ensuring good drainage. Space individuals according to their expected size at maturity. Water them in well after planting, and maintain consistent moisture until they're established, tapering off as they adapt. Mulching helps conserve moisture. Recognize the diversity within tentfig; specific species may have unique requirements.

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.
Titanopsis
Titanopsis is a genus of succulent plants of the family Aizoaceae. They are small plants, with rosette up to 10 cm high. Leaves are truncate tip and rough warty little tubercles at the apex of the leaves. Yellow flowers appear in late fall. This genus includes about 10 species. The genus is Indigenous to the arid regions of South Africa and Namibia. The genus has a disjunct distribution, occurring in three separate areas of southern Africa.
Stone plant
Stone plant is a genus that consists of 100 species of flowering succulent perennial plants, native to semi-arid regions in the far west of Namibia and South Africa. Most species are clump-forming, a few are shrubby. The leaves are opposite and triangular in section, rarely flattened, the surface more or less velvety. Daisy-like flowers open during the day in summer, are borne singly and usually have yellow, rarely purple or red, petals.
Faucaria
Faucaria are a genus of succulents known for their thorn-edged leaves, which look like pointy little teeth. This explains the scientific name Faucaria, which comes from the Latin word for "animal mouth". They are small plants with golden-yellow flowers, and several are domesticated as potted plants or unique ornamentals.
Bergeranthus
Humbug vygies
Trichodiadema
Trichodiadema are small, short-stemmed succulents with flowers that look like daisies, but with red or mauve petals. Native to the southern regions of Africa, these plants have stiff bristles between their segmented sections that make them look similar to cacti. These attractive and distinctive plants are popular with ornamental gardeners.
