Nursery contributed plant descriptions

A beautiful windowed haworthia with fan shaped leaf arrangement.

By: Paradise Found Nursery

A slow growing mounding plant, fleshy thick rectangular leaves arranged in fan shape, pale green form with windows on tips frosted. Easy care, min temp 50 degrees, filtered light, run dry.

By: Accents for Home and Garden

The truncated leaves of this outstanding cultivar are shades of lime and chartreuse with windowed leaf tips openning up to the "mint jelly" inside. With time, they form impressive clumps. This may be the same as 'Down Under', a sport found growing "down under" his nursery bench by John Pilbeam. Haworthia 'Lime Green' really stands out in a crowd. These make outstanding specimens and are very hard to keep in stock. Very limited.
