Splitrock is a small, clump-forming perennial succulent that resembles a piece of greenish speckled rock with a straight cleft down the middle. The body of the plant consists of a pair of globe-shaped leaves fused at the base that sit above the surface of the soil and can grow to 4 inches across. The leaves are grey green to brown with many conspicuous raised dark dots scattered over the whole surface. Large daisy-like flowers emerge from the center of the plant from May through August. They are yellow to coppery-orange, or sometimes white or pinkish with a paler throat, and fragrant with a distinct smell of coconut. Splitrock is adaptable and easy to grow; requiring water and good sunlight, but it will become dormant in very hot weather to conserve water. It is hardy to zones 9-11.
