Common Problems
1. How much sunlight does Haworthia require?
For healthy development, Haworthia requires bright indirect light during the day.
2. What is causing my Haworthia to go limp?
Haworthias are succulent plants that prefer dry soil. Limp and mushy leaves are typical indicators of waterlogged soil-caused root rot.
3. What is causing the leaves to turn red?
Excessive light causes leaves to turn red, indicating tension.
Style and Decor
Light Requirements: Haworthias need bright indirect light all day, but not long stretches of direct light.
Locations: Areas around east or north-facing window are ideal.
Styling/decor tip: Haworthias look fantastic on side tables and in terrariums. For a more contemporary look, plant them in geometric monochrome planters. Covering the topsoil with white stones to create an aesthetic contrast is a smart way to emphasise the leaf shapes.
