fairy washboard succulent Haworthia limifolia – Fairy Washboard – Sprouts of BristolThe ridged leaves of this succulent give it the common name 'Fairy Washboard', and you can see why the texture of the leaves does look like an old fashioned washboard in miniature, and you can totally imagine Tinkerbell scrubbing her clothes on it. This plant can also put out a tall flower spike in summer, and clone itself in 'pups' branching from the base of the plant, so that's definitely something to keep an eye out for. Keep this easygoing

Scientific Name
Haworthiopsis limifolia (Plant that looks like Haworth's genus, with file-like leaves)

Synonyms: Haworthia limifolia

This plant was reclassified from the Haworthia genus to Haworthiopsis following genetic analysis in the early 2010s

Synonyms
Haworthia limifolia var. ubomboensis, Haworthia limifolia var. striata (specific varieties within the species).

Common Name(s)
Fairy Washboard, File-Leaved Haworthia

Origin
This plant is native to subtropical Africa, notably arid scrubland in Mozambique, Eswatini and the Northern Provinces and KwaZulu-Natal in South Africa.

Light
Haworthiopsis plants are happy in the brightest light you can offer indoors; a south- or west-facing window should give it enough direct sun.

Water
Let all of the soil dry out between waters; this plant is used to arid areas and will rot in soggy soil.

Humidity
Your Haworthia is used to arid air so don't keep it anywhere damp or humid.

Soil
A soil mix which drains really well will be your succulent's best friend; mix in sand and grit or look out for a soil mix designed for cacti and succulents. Repot only when its roots have totally filled the pot; succulents do well when rootbound.

Food
Feed every couple of months in summer, and every three months in winter. A feed designed for cacti/succulents will work best, or a diluted general houseplant feed.

Temperature
Your Haworthia likes summer temperatures of 18-25°C, but will prefer to be slightly cooler in winter. Make sure it does not get colder than 10°C.

Pet-safe
Yes, but too much nibbling won't be good for pets, small humans or the plant!

Sprouts Top Tips
Haworthias propagate by putting out tiny pups from their roots to the side of the main plant. You can propagate by carefully separating these, once they have at least four leaves and some roots of their own, and placing them in their own little pot.

Love the long sleeves!!!
Color: White, Size: Small
Love it! I'm 5' 11" tall and I purchased this according to reviews. Several people commented on the length of the sleeves. I have a hard time finding sleeves long enough if it's not " tall" sized. It was perfect for me. If this washes nice I'm going to consider purchasing more in other colors. I ordered the white and just love the long ribbed cuffs with the line of buttons. Very soft.

Nice cozy sweater, but handwashing is recommended

Great sweater for winters in the Midwest
Color: Black, Size: X-Large
Love this sweater! I went back and got another color! The fit is true to size and very comfy. The button detail on the sleeves just adds a little pizazz. The weight of the sweater is perfect for winters in the Midwest.

Flattering fit
Color: Dark Green, Size: XX-Large
This sweater is thick and stretchy but holds a nice shape, and is flattering on the body. The sleeves are nice and long too, which I really appreciate, being a tall person... the button detail is a great addition. True to size. I haven't washed it yet, and I imagine, based on the kind of woolly knit it is, that this sweater will eventually pill... but for now I'm enjoying being cozy and stylish. The deep green color is almost black green. I LOVE IT.

Love it
Color: Dark Green, Size: Small
I got the dark green. Love the sweater and it's warm. I do layer the sweater as well. It is as pictured. Size is perfect to me. I like sweaters to be longer and a bit wider in case it is freezing and I need to layer it. This sweater is perfect for layering. It comes closer to my backside, it is a little wide and not snug, and I like that the sleeves come over my wrists
