Where it grows
Haworthia bobiiĀ is native to Infanta on the southern coast of the Western Cape.
Special features
This species is also known as Haworthia mirabilis v. pilosa. It is an attractive species covered in fine, translucent ‘hairs’, and stays rather small.
Care guide
Haworthia prefer filtered sun and these should be kept under at least 60% shade cloth. Their soil should be gritty to allow good drainage, and we recommend some Ibaraki Akadama or Hyuga pumice. Water well throughout the year, making sure the soil doesn’t stay dry for too long in the cooler months. Avoid watering on hot days in summer.

Spring and autumn.
