Haworthia

Haworthia bayeri is a species of the genus Haworthia in the family Asphodelaceae, endemic to the southern Cape Provinces in South Africa.


Caring for haworthia


1) Control watering as haworthia had fleshy tap roots which tend to rot easily


2) Fertilise them regularly (every 1-2 weeks) with a very diluted liquid cacti fertiliser


3) NO direct afternoon sunlight as it will cause the leaves to burn and shrink


4) Mineral substrate mix (~3mm) consisting of hyuga pumice, akadama and kanuma is the most suitable! Potting mix needs to be loose and permeable.


5) It is best to repot into a tall pot as haworthia has tap roots that grow downwards. Repot every 1-2 years.
