They typically have a pair of fleshy leaves that store water, allowing them to survive in harsh environments. The flowers of Conophytum are usually bright and vibrant, blooming in various colors such as yellow, pink, and white. These plants thrive in well-draining soil and require minimal water, making them popular among succulent enthusiasts and collectors.
