Haworthia retusa (L.) Duval - Haworthia

• Family: Aloceaea
• Pot diameter: 5.5 cm
• A distinctive variety of Haworthia with translucent, triangular leaves that are green and very thick, leaning backwards.
• The shape resembles a star, which is why it is called ‘star cactus’.
• White flowers appear in late spring or early summer, reaching a height of 50 cm.
• Suitable for indoor and outdoor spaces, for compositions with other succulents, and for decorative pots and planters.
• Requires partial shade, with plenty of light throughout the year.
• Prefers mild temperatures and should not be exposed to temperatures below 5 °C, so it is better to keep it during the winter.
• It is recommended to keep the soil slightly moist in spring and summer.
• Be careful of water stagnation that can cause rot.
• The best soil is one that drains well, such as a mix of peat and pumice.
• They do not require frequent fertilization; diluting the fertilizer with watering once a year is sufficient.
