Lithops karasmontana is a species of flowering plant native to Namibia and South Africa. It is a clump-forming succulent with almost stemless leaves that resemble two grey stones with brown mottling. It flowers in autumn with white, narrow-rayed flowers. It is grown in temperate regions under glass, and requires extremely well-drained soil. It is difficult to detect when not in flower due to its ability to mimic the local stone formations. It has gained the Royal Horticultural Society's Award of Garden Merit.
