Haworthia Attenuata

Haworthia Attenuata

Haworthia Attenuata, also known as the Zebra Plant, is a compact succulent known for its rosette of thick, pointed leaves that are dark green with white horizontal stripes. These distinctive “zebra” markings are raised, creating a striking contrast against the deep green leaves. This variety is low-maintenance and makes an attractive addition to any collection with its bold pattern and tidy growth.

Care Tips:

Light: Prefers bright, indirect light. Can tolerate some direct morning sun but should be kept out of harsh afternoon sun to prevent leaf burn.

Water: Water moderately, allowing the soil to dry completely between waterings. Overwatering should be avoided, as it can lead to root rot.

Soil: Requires well-draining soil. A cactus or succulent potting mix works best to maintain proper moisture balance.

Temperature: Thrives in temperatures between 60°F to 80°F (15°C to 27°C). It is not frost-hardy, so it should be protected from freezing temperatures.

Propagation: Easily propagated through offsets that grow at the base of the plant. Gently separate the offsets and plant them in well-draining soil once calloused.

Uses: Ideal for small pots, windowsills, or succulent arrangements. Its striking markings and compact size make it a beautiful and low-maintenance addition to any indoor garden.
