Haworthia spec. Mixed Seeds FUN & EDUCATIONAL FOR YOUNG & OLD Haworthias are a genus of small succulent perennial herbs confined in the wild almost exclusively to the Republic of South Africa. The charm of Haworthias is in their small size, ease of growth, and the almost infinite variation of their delightful leaves. Haworthias rarely require a pot larger than 4-inches in diameter making them ideally suited for a bright windowsill. Perhaps the biggest problem you will encounter when growing Haworthias is that they tend to be addictive! If you acquire more than one plant, you may find yourself wanting more and more, and before you know, you are buying Haworthias with your lunch money. Although some Haworthias are more difficult to cultivate than others, most are very easy. Remember that Haworthias are succulents, so they require abundant bright light, though sudden introduction to direct sunlight will burn and even kill. They also require a well drained soil that approaches dryness between watering. It is best to fertilize only sparingly, using a water soluble houseplant fertilizer diluted to 1/4 strength, no more often than monthly during active growth, and not all if the plant is resting. Many Haworthia aficionados, attempting to simulate the natural habitat, grow their plants "hard". These Haworthias are often grown in direct sunlight, with infrequent watering and no fertilizer. Occasionally one of these "hard" plants will show a spectacular array of stress induced colors, but more often they look burned and shriveled. Regardless of how you grow your Haworthias: fat and happy, or lean and mean, this is a succulent genius that will provide a life-long fascination and continuous source of wonderment and joy!
