Hereof, why is my Lithops wrinkly?

The best way to tell if your Lithops need water during the time when it’s okay to water, is by observing them. They’ll start wrinkling or puckering, or maybe even appear to be sinking deeper into the pot. If you give them a gentle squeeze, they feel softer than when hydrated.

Moreover, how deep do Lithops roots go? The structure of the plant is fascinating, too. Lithops don’t have a true stem. They usually have two leaves that taper down in a conical fashion directly to a taproot. The roots are large compared to the plant, up to 6 inches, so a deep pot is necessary.
