📍 Succulent with a distribution in the Little Karoo but highly concentrated around the mountainous areas east of Oudtshoorn Schoemanspoort in the Western Cape province in the Republic of South Africa. It inhabits a region where the most frequent rains are in winter. The species Haworthiopsis scabra is one of the four representatives of Section Trifariae, which is one of the seven sections described in Gildenhuys & Klopper's (2016) publication on its taxonomy. It belongs to the Alooideae tribe within the Asphodelaceae family.
🌡️USDA ZONE 9a. It can tolerate light frosts. The minimum recommended temperature is -4ºC.
☀️For healthy, stress-free growth, it needs semi-shade or a PAR radiation intensity greater than 20 moles of photons per day.
🌸 Small, white, bilabiate flowers. It blooms several times per season from 3-4 years of age when temperature and water access conditions are adequate.
💧It is opportunistic. It can be watered all year round, always letting the substrate dry between waterings. It does not rest in summer like its Haworthia cousins.
🚀Its development improves by providing nutrition with a high content of assimilable Calcium, such as with Desert CHOICE® Aloes, Haworthias & Co.
