Haworthia are considered easy to grow succulents.  

​

These small, but mighty low growing plants form rosettes of fleshy green leaves that are generously covered with white, pearly warts or bands, giving them a distinctive appearance. (I think they sometimes look like starfish)

​

These decorative little plants can be grown in some very interesting containers which makes a great centerpiece, just make sure the container had adequate drainage. 

​

As with all succulents, the most dangerous situation is too much water, since they should never be allowed to sit in water under any circumstances.

​

Light: Bright light, but not direct sunlight. These grow in similar conditions to other succulents. White or yellow leaves usually signify too much sun.

​

Water: Water evenly and generously in the summer, letting the soil media dry out between waterings. In the winter, reduce watering to every other month. Never allow water to collect in the rosette.

​

Temperature: Warmer summers but cool in the winter (down to 50 degrees F).

​

Soil: Use a cactus mix or very fast-draining potting soil mixed with sand.

​

Fertilizer: Fertilize during the summer growing season with a cactus fertilizer. Don't feed during the winter.
