Haworthia Chocolate

  • Haworthia 'Chocolate' is a stunning hybrid known for its rich, brownish-burgundy to deep bronze foliage. It forms a compact rosette of thick, triangular leaves. The surface of the leaves is textured with tiny tubercles and features "fenestrate" (translucent) windows near the tips, which allow light to penetrate the inner tissues of the plant.

    This plant is a cultivated hybrid derived from species native to the Western and Eastern Cape of South Africa. Its ancestors evolved to grow partially buried in the soil or tucked under the shade of rocks, which is why Haworthia 'Chocolate' handles indoor "bookshelf" lighting much better than most succulents.

    Like many in its genus, Haworthia 'Chocolate' produces small, tubular white flowers with subtle green or brown striping. These flowers appear on a very long, slender stalk (peduncle) that can reach up to 12 inches high. The contrast between the dark, moody "chocolate" leaves and the delicate, airy white blooms is a highlight for any grower

  • Bright Indirect Light. While it can handle lower light than many succulents, its "chocolate" color deepens with brighter (but filtered) light. Avoid direct, scorching sun.

    Very Gritty Mix. A blend of 50-70% inorganic material like pumice, lava rock, or perlite is ideal for healthy roots.

    The "Wait and See" Method. Water only when the soil is completely dry. The leaves may feel slightly softer when the plant is thirsty.
  • 10 to 11. Typically kept as an indoor plant or in a temperature-controlled greenhouse.
