Care Guide

Light:
Thrives in bright, indirect light and tolerates lower light conditions better than many succulents. Avoid prolonged exposure to intense afternoon sun.

Water:
Allow the soil to dry completely between waterings. Water thoroughly, then let excess moisture drain away.

Soil:
Use a fast-draining cactus or succulent mix amended with pumice, perlite, or coarse grit to promote healthy root development.

Potting:
Repot during spring or early summer as needed. Always choose a container with drainage holes.

Temperature:
Prefers temperatures between 65°F and 90°F (18°C–32°C). Protect from freezing temperatures.

Humidity:
Average household humidity is ideal. Good air circulation helps maintain healthy growth.

Shipping Information

• 2" plants are shipped with the nursery pot and soil.
• 4" and larger plants are shipped bare root (without pot or soil) to promote healthier shipping and reduce the risk of damage.
• Each plant is unique, so natural variations in size, shape, and coloration are to be expected.

Planting Tips

Plant in a porous, well-draining cactus or succulent soil mix and allow the soil to dry between waterings. Proper drainage helps prevent root rot and keeps your Zebra Plant healthy and thriving.

Whether displayed on a sunny windowsill or added to a succulent arrangement, Haworthia fasciata offers year-round beauty with minimal care.
