Well, if you guys have any haworthia to trade, I would be happy to trade a lot of my other succulents.

I might have some haworthias for trade

 

[Gregbey]

Heres A couple of mine 3 of these are actually "haworthopsis" anyways some are in need of repottung which i might do today as i got stuff for a good soil mix for my new lithops!

May I ask what your lighting situation for your haworthias are?

Various degrees of sunlight. Brief direct afternoon sun for about 2-3 hours. Bright/diffused for the remaining. It’s a northwestern facing window.

I only got 2 windows and both face straight north lol but are huge so only grow lights for my carnivorous plants, and my succulents have a mixture of both. haworthias in particular do best when forgotten about it seems.. i water mine like once a month honestly and try to forget about them. Cant do that with my nepenthes lol.

Same here. I tried cacti and started feeling guilty of all the nice things I killed. Haworthia were the only succulents that consistently did well for me

Looks like your collection grew substantially since we last spoke. And you got yourself a variegated white Christmas as well! Well done!

 

[elgecko]

Thanks.
Yes, added several new plants.
Looked over my records and see I did not buy any Haworthia in 2020.
Bought 2 Haworthia in 2021. One which was Haworthia truncata 'Hiroshige' variegated 9/21.
The 1 plant I really want to add to the collection is a variegated Haworthia maughanii.
Haven't found any in the price range I'm willing to spend.

Any particular cultivar?

 

[elgecko]

No particular one.
I don't like the ones that are tall and skinny.
Like the chunky ones.
