Haworthia comptoniana — Haworthia

Haworthia comptoniana is a low, extremely elegant haworthia with fleshy leaves forming a neat rosette, distinguished by the semi-transparent "windows" at their tips. Their surface shows fine striations and engraved-like patterns, offering a calm yet distinctive texture.

Characteristics:

• Family: Asphodelaceae
• Pot diameter: 5.5 cm
• Light: Bright location, indirect or filtered light
• Watering: Sparse, only when the substrate is well dried
• Growth rate: Slow
• Foliage: Fleshy leaves with semi-transparent edges and fine striations
• Toxicity: Non-toxic to dogs and cats

Ideal use: On a desk or shelf, in bright places with indirect light or in small ceramic pots. It is an excellent choice for succulent arrangements with other haworthias and gasterias.

Haworthia comptoniana originates naturally from South Africa, while its characteristic appearance is due to the semi-transparent windows that allow light to penetrate deeper into the leaf.
