Haworthia maughanii ‘Enduring River’

Haworthia maughanii (sometimes listed as a variety of H. truncata) is a distinctive succulent from the Little Karoo region of South Africa’s Western Cape province with rounded to angled leaves held in a loose rosette. The tips are truncated and translucent acting as “light pipes” that allow light to enter into the leaves — which are often half buried in sand in the wild — for photosynthesis. ‘Enduring River’ is a beautiful form with frosted, truncated tips with bold whitish to yellowish to almost peach white lines. Easy to grow. Tolerant of lower light than other succulents and cool temperatures but best kept above freezing.
