The genus Argyroderma is restricted to the Knersvlatke area in southern Namaqualand in the northwestern part of the Western Cape Province, South Africa. They are compact, dwarf succulents, tufted or single-bodied, and rarely sunken in the ground. The highly succulent leaf pairs are rounded or thumb-shaped and in pairs united at the base. The characteristic silvery green leaves are smooth. The plants are extremely popular among collectors. They should be treated lie Lithops and watered during the summer. Care, however, must be taken not to water the plants too much lest the leaves split. Argyroderma prefer a well-drained loamy soil; they donât like frequent repotting and can be grown in relatively small pots for years. They are propagated by seed or division of multi-headed plants.
Propagation: Seed or (or rarely) cuttings. The small seeds can be sown in pots of fine, well-drained sand, any time during the spring and summer months when temperatures are warm. Cover the seeds with a very fine layer of grit and water from below with a fungicide to prevent damping off. For the first 3-4 days cover the pots with a sheet of glass/clear perspex to keep the humidity levels high. Remove the glass and replace it with light shade cloth and mist once or twice a day for the next two weeks after which most seeds should have germinated. From then on misting can be reduced to every second and then every third day as the little plants grow.
