Haworthia Cymbiformis

Haworthia cymbiformis – Boat-Shaped Elegance in a Rosette
Haworthia cymbiformis, commonly known as Boat Haworthia, is a charming, compact succulent known for its translucent, fleshy leaves that form neat, symmetrical rosettes. A favorite among indoor gardeners, this low-maintenance plant brings subtle beauty and texture to windowsills, desktops, and small container gardens.

Key Features

• Translucent Leaves: Soft, light-filled foliage allows sunlight to filter through the tips, creating a gentle glow.

• Boat-Shaped Form: Each leaf is slightly concave—shaped like a small boat—offering a unique, sculptural appearance.

• Rosette Growth: Naturally forms compact, rounded rosettes, perfect for small spaces or grouped arrangements.

• Soft Green Hue: Typically showcases light to pale green tones that add freshness to any plant collection.

• Petite Size: Ideal for windowsill pots, terrariums, or mixed succulent containers.

Care Guidelines

• Light: Prefers bright, indirect light or filtered sunlight. Can tolerate up to 70% shade. Avoid prolonged exposure to harsh, direct sun.

• Water: Water only when the soil is completely dry. Overwatering is a common issue—less is more.

• Soil: Use a well-draining cactus or succulent potting mix.

• Temperature: Enjoys moderate indoor temperatures. Keep above freezing and protect from frost.

• Potting: Repot annually or as needed to refresh soil and encourage healthy growth.
