  • Lithops Scrapbook: Part 1’, Comment on ‘Data on Lithops Cultivar Names’, Cactus World, Formosa, V
    Painting of L. julii subsp. fulleri var. brunnea © Jim Porter and reproduced with kind permission. Brief additional notes to the Cole Lithops monographs by Keith Green. Introduction An abridged version of these notes was published over three issues by the BRITISH CACTUS AND SUCCULENT SOCIETY in their journal CACTUS WORLD, in December 2007, March 2008 and June 2008. This is the complete, unedited project. The following notes evolved from my intention to provide an update (without any duplication) to Professor DESMOND T. COLE’s original Lithops monograph - LITHOPS FLOWERING STONES, published in Randburg, Republic of South Africa by Acorn Books in 1988. An attempt was made to briefly document all of the subsequent discoveries within the genus, with emphasis on the originating source. I gave consideration to every “new” Lithops I saw mentioned (the vast majority of which were termed cultivars) and documented, further researched and where possible obtained photographs of those I considered worthy of the rank afforded them. Over the years I therefore amassed quite a reasonable number of entries. Early in 2003 I learned through the pages of the M.S.G. Bulletin that Professor Cole was going to update his work and have a second edition Lithops monograph published. Subsequently I was able to make contact with Professor Cole, and I sent him a rough copy of these (then embryonic) notes hoping that they would be of some assistance to him in compiling his new book. Although he and Naureen kindly mention my help on p. 11 of ‘Cole’05’, I learnt a great deal more from the Coles’ than they could ever have learnt from me! Professor Cole’s reply (which included some Lithops seed) was most informative.
