Lithops Dorothy Has a Secret....

Can you see what it is??

Tiny new leaves! All right, Dorothy! Audrey, who bloomed at the same time, turns out to be a bit of a slacker, and shows no signs of new leaf growth whatsoever.

I was too excited taking pictures of Dorothy to notice the fierce storm taking shape to our west. In a few minutes time, we were all hunkered down in our storm shelter, aka, the Laundry Room, as tornados touched down about a kilometer from our house.  I didn't have enough time to bring in all my pots, which were happily drying in the sun. One didn't make it...

That's all that's left of it now, a smudge on the patio... I'll have to pay more attention to the radar next time.
But in the end, the sun came back, and a rainbow, too!
Have a wonderful weekend!
