  •   Haworthia cymbiformis var. lepida is a window succulent from the Asphodelaceae family, native to South Africa's Eastern Cape region. It forms compact rosettes of thick, translucent leaves that adapt well to indoor conditions and thrives under office LED lighting.

      The leaves are boat-shaped with crystalline surfaces that catch and filter light, creating a glass-like appearance. Individual rosettes reach 3–4 inches across and develop clustering through natural offsetting. The thick, translucent foliage shifts slightly in direct sun but remains pale green indoors, with leaves that will slightly when dry.

      It produces white tubular flowers on tall, slender stalks during spring and summer. The plant is pet friendly, with no toxins present, so it stays safe around cats and dogs. You can leave it up to ten days without water.

      Haworthia Lepida tolerates dry heated air and can be moved outside for summer enjoyment without stress. The drought tolerance and wilting signal make it suitable for offices, desks, and travel.

  •   Haworthia cymbiformis var. lepida grows well in bright indirect light and under office LED lighting.

      Water it every 7–14 days during the growing season, allowing the soil to dry completely between waterings.

      Haworthia Lepida grows best in well-draining cactus and succulent potting mix with added perlite.

      It prefers temperatures between 65–80°F and is not frost tolerant.

      Haworthia Lepida grows slowly and needs minimal fertilizer; apply diluted succulent food monthly during spring only.

      It is hardy in USDA zones 9–11 and cannot tolerate frost below 32°F. It grows outdoors year-round in Florida, southern California, southern Texas, southern Arizona, Hawaii, southern Louisiana, coastal Georgia, coastal South Carolina, southern Nevada, and parts of coastal Oregon. It can also grow outdoors in Alabama, Mississippi, and other warm coastal regions with proper winter protection.
  • Q: How often should I water Haworthia cymbiformis var. lepida?

    Q: Is this plant safe around pets?
    A: Haworthia cymbiformis var. lepida is completely non-toxic and safe for cats and dogs.

    A: Haworthia Lepida forms individual rosettes 3–4 inches across and clusters naturally over time through offsets.

    🌵 For Succulents
    When your package arrives, you may notice a bit of loose soil in the box. This is completely normal during shipping.
    Please remove your plants from their packaging right away and follow the care instructions included with your order. Succulents prefer to dry out between waterings, so only water when the soil is completely dry.
    Succulents are resilient plants and typically recover quickly once they settle into their new environment. Give them a few days to adjust before placing them in direct sunlight, and avoid fertilizing right away.
