Haworthia cymbiformis var. setulifera

Embodying the essence of understated elegance, Haworthia cymbiformis var. setulifera is a gem among succulents hailing from the Eastern Cape of South Africa. This particular variety is distinguished by its thick, translucent leaves that form in tight rosettes, creating a captivating visual texture that is both soothing and intriguing. The leaves are a deep green, almost glass-like in appearance, with delicate white bristles – or setae – adorning their margins and giving the plant a soft, feathery touch.

Typically, Haworthia cymbiformis var. setulifera remains compact, growing to about 4 inches in height and width, making it an ideal choice for those with limited space or seeking a subtle yet striking addition to their plant collection. It thrives in well-draining soil, requiring minimal water, and prefers bright, indirect light, making it a low-maintenance option for both beginners and seasoned succulent enthusiasts alike.

While it may not boast the bold colors of some of its succulent cousins, the Haworthia cymbiformis var. setulifera brings its own unique charm with its architectural structure and the almost ethereal glow of its leaves. In the right conditions, it may also surprise with delicate white flowers, adding a touch of grace to its already sophisticated appearance. Whether nestled among rocks in a garden, showcased in a terrarium, or perched on a sunny windowsill, this Haworthia is sure to captivate and enchant all who encounter it.

Plant sizing is based on the diameter of the nursery pot (2", 2.5", 3", 4" etc), not the plant itself. Plants may be slightly larger or smaller than the pot they are grow in depending on availability or time of year. While we do our best to ship plants as similar to those pictured as possible, please keep in mind that all plants are unique from one to the next, and display color, shape, and growth variation based on current environment, time of year, and other contributing factors. Please note that we ship our plants as dry as possible in the fall and winter months to prevent root rot or freezing. They will plump back up after planting!
