Know before you buy
Grower's Choice means that our team will select a healthy, high-quality Haworthia specimen from our current inventory for your order. While you cannot choose a specific variety, you are guaranteed a beautiful, established plant that meets our strict quality standards.
Haworthia are drought-tolerant succulents that prefer to dry out completely between waterings. Depending on your home's light and temperature, this typically means watering every two to three weeks, ensuring the soil is fully dry before adding more moisture.
While Haworthia are resilient, they do best in bright, indirect light or direct sunlight. In very low-light conditions, the plant may lose its compact shape or become 'leggy' as it stretches toward a light source.
Yes, Haworthia are excellent for compact spaces. They grow slowly and typically reach a mature height of only 3 to 8 inches, making them perfect for windowsills, desks, or small shelves.
No, the plant arrives established in a 2.5-inch pot with appropriate soil. You can keep it in its original container while it acclimates to your home, and it will not require repotting for quite some time due to its slow growth rate.
