Highlights
Haworthia cymbiformis f. variegata (Duval): A beautiful variegate form of the species. This rosette succulent features leaves that are lime green and streaked though with cream. The leaf windows are still there to add a gorgeous translucence.
H. cymbiformis makes an excellent indoor plant for beginners because it is less susceptible to succulent pests and can tolerate a bit of over-watering while you learn to conscientiously under-water your succulents. For optimal growth, choose pots and soil with excellent drainage. Water deeply and only when the soil is completely dry.
Haworthia are slow growers but they will eventually produce offsets to form a small cluster. It's Latin name, cymbiformis, means "boat-shaped" in reference to the way the leaves curve inward and come to a point. As they grow, they send up tall bloom stalks with tiny white blossoms, though they are easily removed if desired.
