Haworthia ‘Imperial Capital’

Haworthia 'Imperial Capital' has light green, dark green and tan leaves with translucent tips covered in sparkly bumps.

Haworthia is an intriguing genus related to Aloe and native to southern Africa. Most form small rosettes of succulent foliage often with translucent tips or “light pipes” that allow light to enter into the leaves — which are often half buried in sand in the wild — for photosynthesis. ‘Imperial Capital’ has light green, dark green and tan leaves with translucent tips covered in sparkly bumps that glisten in the light. Colours can deepen with more light and stress. Easy to grow. Tolerant of lower light than other succulents and cool temperatures but best kept above freezing.
