Huernia zebrina 'Lifesaver Plant

Embodying the wild essence of its native South African landscape, Huernia zebrina 'Lifesaver Plant is a captivating succulent that demands attention. Its cylindrical, dark green leaves are ornately patterned with white horizontal stripes, closely resembling the striking pattern of a zebra's coat. This exquisite detailing not only adds a unique texture but also an artistic flair to any collection. Standing modestly at about 8 inches in height, this plant forms a dense, columnar shape that can elegantly accentuate any indoor space.

Perfect for beginners, the Lifesaver Plant thrives in conditions that mimic its natural habitat – bright, indirect light with minimal watering, making it an ideal choice for those new to succulent care. Its robust nature allows it to adapt to various environments, whether placed on a sunny windowsill or in a shaded office corner. As it matures, you'll witness the delightful surprise of its offsets, or "pups," which gradually form a charming cluster around the mother plant.

Though it's not known for flashy blooms, the true spectacle lies in its foliage, which can provide year-round visual interest. When planted in a shallow dish garden or a mixed succulent container, Huernia zebrina 'Lifesaver Plant adds depth and contrast, creating a mesmerizing miniature landscape. This succulent is not just a plant; it's a living piece of art that brings a touch of the wild into your home or office.

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!
