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. The leaves of this plant are held for a very long time (potentially decades) if given consistent water once dry. Shriveling lower leaves indicates consistent underwatering of the plant. | |

Notas de cultivo
Very easy. Pull off older flower spikes once they are completely dry.
Exceptional choice for pots, even small ones.
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.
If given some direct sun this plant will get a reddish brown tint to it.
Suckers of this plant are easily divided of and replanted once they have their own roots, and also if the lower leaves eventually shrivel up, leaving a stem the top of the plant can be cut and replanted to reestablish the look of leaves up the complete length of the stem.
Interés especial
Keep an eye out on your flowers as haworthia often set keikisâ€"small pups dangling from the flower spikeâ€"that can be replanted once the flower spike begins to wane.
