Haworthia Cooperi Variegata

The endemic region of Haworthia Cooperi Variegata is the Eastern Cape in southern Africa. This species has a short stem that is located several centimetres underground, with cylindrical leaves that extend up to the soil surface. The transparent tips let light into the factory below. Most of each leaf is under soil, helping them stay cooler in summer and less visible to animals. The plant offsets slowly, yet eventually forms an attractive clump.

INSTRUCTIONS FOR ROOTING CUTTINGS
Place cutting atop soil and press lightly a few centimetres. Water the plant lightly after two weeks of planting and avoid watering again until the soil is dry. Within three weeks the roots should start to form. While the plant is in its rooting stage, keep it in bright shade. For outdoor planting, make sure to slowly adjust the plant to the environment and avoid sunburns.
