Notas de cultivo

Haworthias are some of the most drought-tolerant succulents, especially in some shade, where they perform better than most other succulents. They will look more lush and vibrant with bi-weekly summer water, or more if they're planted in the sun or in smaller pots. If you see your leaves shriveling, or if the bottom leaves are drying up, your plant likely needs water.

This haworthia offsets from the base, creating a small colony over time. Once a pup is established with its own roots, they are easily divided and repotted.

On very old plants lower leaves will begin to die. If this imperfection isn't wanted you can cut the stem at the highest dead leaf, peel off an inch of leaves above the cutting, let dry for a week and then plant in fresh cactus mix. The original plant will regrow a new clump of fresh rosettes.

Interés especial

Keep an eye out on your flowers as haworthia often set keikis—small pups dangling from the flower spike—that can be replanted once the flower spike begins to wane.
