Zebra Succulent

Haworthia is a large genus of small succulent plants, most of them native to South Africa. They are generally lumped under the common name haworthia, though different species might carry other common names. These plants are delightful little succulents that make attractive small houseplants. Potted plants are often moved outdoors for the summer months, and in regions without frost, they are sometimes grown in the garden. These small, low-growing plants form rosettes of fleshy green leaves that are generously covered with white pearly warts or bands, giving them a distinctive appearance. Generally easy to grow, the same best practices that yield healthy aloe and echeveria plants will also produce beautiful haworthia plants. These plants are often purchased as potted specimens and are best planted in the spring or early summer. Like many succulents, they are fairly slow-growing plants.
