harlem2345,
Lithops is its name and they are plants. However, growers and laymen call them living stones of flowering stones as they look like small stones in their natural surroundings. It's a camouflage to protect them from predators. If I am not wrong they are from southern Africa and grow in very hot and dry areas (Somebody correct me if I am wrong). They can survive in these extreme conditions because they have the unique ability to store water.
By the way Jon,
I've ordered a couple for myself from the nursery you recommended. can't wait for them to arrive.
