Haworthia Cymbiformis

Haworthia Cymbiformis

Haworthia Cymbiformis, also known as the “Window Haworthia,” is a small succulent with distinct, boat-shaped, translucent leaves that are often green to light green. The leaves have a unique, windowed appearance at the tips, allowing light to penetrate for photosynthesis. This feature, along with its low-growing rosette, makes it a fascinating plant for succulent collectors.

Care Tips:

Light: Prefers bright, indirect light but can tolerate some direct morning sun. Avoid intense, direct sunlight, which can scorch the leaves.

Water: Water sparingly, allowing the soil to dry completely between waterings. Overwatering can cause root rot, so ensure good drainage.

Soil: Requires well-draining soil. A cactus or succulent mix is ideal to provide the necessary drainage.

Temperature: Grows well in temperatures between 60°F to 80°F (15°C to 27°C). Not frost-hardy—protect from freezing temperatures.

Propagation: Easily propagated from offsets or leaf cuttings. Allow the offset to callous before planting it in well-draining soil.

Uses: Perfect for small pots, windowsills, or succulent arrangements. Its distinctive windowed leaves and compact size make it an attractive choice for any indoor space.
