Water the plant sparingly, allowing the soil to dry out almost completely between waterings. Avoid overwatering to prevent root rot.Soil
This succulent prefers well-draining soil, such as a sandy or cactus mix. Good drainage is essential to prevent water from accumulating around the roots, which can lead to rot. A pot with drainage holes is recommended.Fertilizer
Fertilize Haworthia marumiana sparingly, using a balanced fertilizer with a nutrient composition of 2-7-7. Apply the fertilizer during the growing season, typically in spring and summer, at half the recommended strength.Repotting

Propagate Haworthia marumiana through offsets or leaf cuttings. Offsets can be separated from the mother plant and potted individually. Leaf cuttings should be allowed to callous over before planting in well-draining soil. Propagation is best done in spring or early summer.Pruning
Pruning is generally not required for Haworthia marumiana. However, you can remove any dead or damaged leaves to maintain the plant's appearance and health.Toxicity
