Detail
Haworthia cymbiformis f. variegata is a stemless, evergreen, succulent perennial plant with simple leaves (up to 2 inches / 5 cm long) arranged in rosettes, up to 3 inches (8 cm) tall and 4 inches (10 cm) in diameter. Leaves are succulent soft and glassy (almost transparent), nicely variegated with light-green and white longitudinal strips with varying amounts of variegation. White to very pale pink flowers with brownish-green veins are borne on a up to 8 inches (20 cm) tall inflorescence. The fruits are loculicidal capsules.

Growing Conditions

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 watering. 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˚F/10˚C).
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.

Propagation

Haworthia can be propagated at repotting time using offsets from the mother plant. When taking offsets, use a sharp knife or snippers and cut as close to the mother stem as possible to including as many roots as possible, then allow the offset to dry briefly before repotting it (similar to cuttings from other succulents).

Pot the offsets in a small pot, using the same soil as the mother plant, put it a warm, bright spot, and make sure to adequately water.

It has stretched. Possibly needs more light but they also burn if it gets direct sun.

Bought another from Kate Phang RM34. Must remember not to overwater this one.

So happy that one of the salvaged leaves are producing babies.

Almost all rotted away. Hoping these leaves can produce babies.

Shouldn't have watered after repotting. So susceptible to root rot and it happened so fast. Trying to salvage what I can.
