Haworthia Cooperi
Haworthia cooperi, also known as Cooper’s Haworthia, is a slow-growing succulent plant that is native to South Africa. The plant forms clumps of stemless or short-stemmed rosettes of thick, fleshy light green leaves with darker longitudinal lines and transparent tips. The rosettes can grow up to 3.2 inches in diameter. The Haworthia cooperi is a rare succulent that requires well-draining soil and plenty of sunlight to thrive.
Light: The Haworthia cooperi needs around 6 hours of direct sunlight per day to thrive. Place it in a sunny window, such as a south-facing one, but protect it if the sun is particularly strong. To get maximum growth on this slow-growing cactus, 6 hours of direct sunlight per day would be best. Make sure, however, not to let it sit in the window if you are experiencing a heatwave or particularly intense light. This could scorch your cactus and also cause unsightly burned patches on the flesh. This is particularly true for young plants. Keep them out of direct sunlight completely until they are mature.
Soil: Provide well-draining soil using general potting mix, sand, and stones.
Watering: The roots on the Haworthia cooperi need to be protected from overwatering, excessive sogginess, and dampness. Water once a week during the growing season in spring and summer. Ensure the soil is dried out on the top before watering again. This watering schedule will need to be eased up over the winter months. As the plant goes into a natural resting period, growth will slow and the watering needs will reduce. You may find that the plant needs only watered once a month at this point.
Temperature: The Haworthia cooperi grows best in temperatures between 50-70 degrees Fahrenheit (10-21 degrees Celsius). Ensure it doesn’t sit in temperatures below 40 degrees Fahrenheit (4 degrees Celsius) in winter.
