Haworthiopsis Reinwardtii

The rosettes are spreading out... got some advice from someone at the Philadelphia Cactus and Succulent Society's meeting today that this guy might not be getting enough light. So onto the windowsill. 10 Nov 2019 #haworthia #haworthiareinwardtii #haworthia-reinwardtii #reinwardtii

Gave him a drink last week and his buds started spreading open. He'll close up his claws again as he dries out. #reinwardtii #haworthia-reinwardtii #haworthiareinwardtii #haworthia #windowsill #apartmentgarden

Awesome!!!

As the soil dried out, the leaves closed their points back up. Whew! #haworthia #reinwardtii

@sushiwaitress, are the plants healthier when kept closed or do you just prefer them closed for asthetics?

@AdamMoreno purely aesthetics. I just like how they look like closed flower buds vs the usual sprawly arms-everywhere look.

I gave this guy a drink the other day because his neighbors were thirsty, annnnnd he started opening up his leaves. Booooooo! No more water for you for a while! I'm moving you into your own catch-basin. Bah humbug! #haworthiafasciatazebra #haworthiafasciata #zebrahaworthia #succulents #haworthia

My one of these has very "closed" leaves, I presumed that was a sign of underwatering. I must take another picture

Oh interesting @KelsiBriana -- the grower mislabeled one of the other plants he/she sold, so this one could very well have also been mislabeled too. I will go Google now ☺ -- thanks for the tip!

OMG @KelsiBriana I hope you're right!! I love the photos I saw!! Time will tell! THANK YOU!!!

@KelsiBriana I'm gonna go on and change the encyclopedia entry now 😁 (I like this plant a whole lot more now, can you tell?)

Seems like the flowers only last a day. Sadly, I have nothing to pollinate them with. It's been a lot of fun watching these #flowers #bloom anyway though. #afternoonsun #haworthiafasciatazebra #haworthiafasciata #zebrahaworthia #succulents #haworthia #windowsill
