What does a media for Lithops consist of?

How big do Birds of Paradise get?

Thanks.

Lithops can grow fine in cactus potting soil, preferably with rocks or pea gravel as a mulch.

Bird of Paradise plants get about 4' tall.

BTW, you have 1000 posts as I write! http://www.**********.com/iB_html312/non-cgi/emoticons/wow.gif

try a google search on the birds of paradise. there are 2 different kinds, the white flowered and the blue and orange flowered. the white flowered versions get much larger than the blue and orange. locally, i only see the white flowered ones for sale, but i was able to order a blue and orange one from the store a friend works at...
