Haworthias and Aloes - Native to South Africa

CARE:

1. Prefers bright reflected light to direct sun, although some varieties get nice purple color with some sun.
2. Great for window ledge.
3. Let dry out between thorough waterings.
4. Propagate by offset.
5. Soil medium – 3 parts peat type material to 1 part coarse Perlite.
6. Fertilize monthly (I use Peters 20-20-20).
