Where it grows
Variegated tissue cultured cultivar that does not occur in nature.
Special features
This particular Haworthia truncata is quite well variegated, with plenty of orange and yellow colouration across most of its leaves.
Care guide
Haworthia generally prefer filtered sun, but to enhance the colouration of this variegated plant, it should not be kept under anything more than 40% shade cloth. The 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.
Growing season
Autumn and winter.
Propagation
Offsets and leaves.
