Haworthia Var. Obtusa

Native to South Africa, this species displays distinct streaking variegation in its clear leaves. Bright, indirect sunlight is preferred, while the best growth comes from a non-organic medium with a slow-release fertilizer. Dullness in the plant usually means it's receiving too much sunlight.
