I was looking up lithops to see what kind I wanted to get, and I saw this picture on ebay.
I love the yellow one, but I can't figure out what species it is. It's the third column, third row.
Thanks.

Lithops
Hi, Jackie,
Lithops can be very difficult to name correctly as the coloration of their leaf surface can vary considerably, even with the same species.
However you have picked an extremely distinctive one and if you are ready for it I am pretty certain this is the name: Lithops bromfieldii var. insularis cv. "Sulphurea"
Lithops should never be planted in a display with other succulents as they have a totally different growing season and this will cause problems.
They will tolerate intense heat and bright indirect light. I could go on forever, if you need any more advise, just put a post on the forum.
Cheers
John
