Product description
Latin Name: haworthia fasciata big band
Haworthia fasciata big band, also known as the "zebra plant", is a perennial succulent plant that can grow both individually and in groups. Its leaves are usually dark green, covered with numerous white lines and tubercles arranged transversely. Flowering occurs in summer, creating small white flowers, which bloom from a central stem.
Light: It requires moderate lighting while it is best to avoid direct exposure to solar rays.For this reason it adapts very well to indoor spaces
Water: Their substrate differs from other plants as they require light substrates with a large proportion of sand for good drainage. If the drainage factor is ensured, watering can be done regularly and avoid the risk of rotting of the root system.
Temperature: It is preferable to keep it at mild temperatures and especially never below 5°C, so it is recommended to place it in protected places during winter.
Fertilization: Nutrient requirements are limited, so fertilizing 1-2 times a year with a suitable fertilizer for cacti is enough.
Last Tip - Prompt: During the period of lethargy, the frequency of irrigation is extended every fortnight, maintaining high lighting. This causes shrinkage of the plants' skin until early spring when irrigation needs grow and it returns to its normal state.
