Another misnamed purchase. This was sold as Lithops julii 'Pallid'. It's actually a standard Lithops julii ssp julii. 
*’Pallida’
*L. julii ‘Pallida’. This Latin based epithet was unintentionally published in cultivar format (personal comment) by Terry Smale in the “Seed Distribution List” of the Mesemb Study Group Bulletin vol. 28(1) pp.5-7 (2013), numbered 2797. Further, and as recorded on page 343 of Lithops - Flowering Stones by DT & NA Cole (2005), *’Pallida’ is not distinct from L. julii subsp. julii.
