info
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.

Growing Notes

Very easy. Pull off older leaves once they are dried up. 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.
