Haworthiopsis reinwardtii, commonly known as Zebra Wart, is a small succulent native to South Africa. It is characterized by its rosette of fleshy, pointed leaves with white tubercles arranged in bands, giving it a distinctive appearance. This plant is well-suited to subtropical climates and can tolerate a range of conditions, making it a popular choice for indoor and outdoor succulent gardens.
Haworthiopsis reinwardtii thrives in bright, indirect light and prefers moderate temperatures. It should be watered sparingly, allowing the soil to dry out almost completely between waterings. This succulent does well in low humidity environments and can tolerate some neglect, making it an easy plant to care for.
Bodem
This plant prefers well-draining soil, such as a sandy or cactus mix. Good drainage is essential to prevent root rot, so ensure the pot has drainage holes. A mix of sand, perlite, and a small amount of organic matter works well.
Kunstmest
Fertilize Haworthiopsis reinwardtii sparingly, using a balanced succulent fertilizer with a nutrient composition of 2-7-7. Apply fertilizer during the growing season, typically in spring and summer, and reduce feeding during the dormant period.
Verpotten
Repotting should be done every 2-3 years or when the plant outgrows its pot. Choose a slightly larger pot with good drainage, and handle the plant carefully to avoid damaging the roots. Repot during the growing season for best results.
Voortplanting
Haworthiopsis reinwardtii can be propagated through offsets or leaf cuttings. Offsets can be gently removed from the base of the plant and potted separately. Leaf cuttings should be allowed to callous over before planting in well-draining soil.
Snoeien
Pruning is generally not required for this plant. However, you can remove any dead or damaged leaves to maintain its appearance. Use clean, sharp scissors or pruning shears to avoid infection.
Toxiciteit
Haworthiopsis reinwardtii is non-toxic to pets and humans, making it a safe choice for households with animals and children. However, it is always best to keep plants out of reach of curious pets and young children.
Aanvullend
To encourage healthy growth, rotate the plant occasionally to ensure even light exposure. Avoid overwatering, as this is the most common cause of problems with succulents. During the dormant period in winter, reduce watering and avoid fertilizing.
