Haworthia Green Flame

Product Description

A Haworthia 'Green Flame' is a visually appealing succulent known for its distinctive rosette shape and striking green foliage.  It features triangular, pointed leaves that form a tight and compact rosette. The leaves are typically a vibrant, deep green color, which intensifies under proper lighting conditions. The leaves are elongated and taper towards the tips, giving them a unique and eye-catching appearance. The edges of the leaves may have tiny teeth or small translucent areas, adding to their charm. A mature Haworthia 'Green Flame' plant usually reaches a moderate size, with the rosette growing to around 4 to 6 inches (10 to 15 cm) in diameter.

Care Guide:

1. Light: Provide bright, indirect sunlight for your Haworthia 'Green Flame.' It thrives in plenty of light but should be protected from intense, direct sunlight, which can cause leaf burn.

2. Temperature: Maintain temperatures between 65°F to 80°F (18°C to 27°C) during the growing season. Protect it from frost and cold drafts in the winter.

3. Watering: Water sparingly and allow the top inch (2.5 cm) or more of the soil to dry out completely between waterings. Overwatering can lead to root rot, so it's crucial to avoid keeping the soil consistently wet.

4. Soil: Plant your Haworthia 'Green Flame' in well-draining succulent or cactus potting mix. Ensure the container has drainage holes to prevent waterlogged roots.

5. Container: Use a pot with drainage holes to ensure proper drainage.

6. Fertilizing: Fertilize sparingly during the growing season (spring and summer) with a balanced, diluted liquid fertilizer. Apply fertilizer at half the recommended strength every 4-6 weeks.

7. Pruning: Trim away any dead or withered leaves as needed to maintain the plant's appearance and health.

8. Pests and Diseases: Keep an eye out for common succulent pests like mealybugs and spider mites. Treat any infestations promptly with suitable treatments.

9. Repotting: Haworthia 'Green Flame' generally doesn't require frequent repotting. Repot only when the plant becomes root-bound or outgrows its container, typically every 2-3 years.
